The Jane Addams Papers Project is a scholarly editing initiative dedicated to publishing the correspondence and writings of Jane Addams, a pioneering social worker, settlement founder, and peace activist. The project focuses on her works from 1901 to 1935, a period during which she was deeply involved in social reform and international peace efforts. The Jane Addams Digital Edition offers a freely accessible, searchable database of her letters, speeches, and articles, accompanied by scholarly annotations that contextualize her contributions to American society and global peace movements.
