The efforts of Jane and the women at Hull-House resulted in the Illinois legislature enacting protective legislation for women and children and, in 1903, passed a strong child labor law and an accompanying compulsory education law. With the creation of the United States Children’s Bureau in 1912 and the passage of a federal child labor law in 1916, the Hull-House reformers saw their efforts expanded to the national level (Hansan, J., 2010).
