Addressing the societal issue of prostitution, Jane Addams offers a compassionate and analytical perspective that challenges traditional views. Drawing from her experiences at Hull House, she identifies poverty, educational deprivation, and gender inequality as root causes. Rather than advocating punitive measures, Addams proposes holistic solutions, including improved labor conditions and social support systems, to address the systemic issues fueling prostitution. Her work emphasizes empathy and understanding for those affected, aiming for a more just and equitable society.
