It would be useful to see some documentation of the claim that Jane Addams was influenced by the Social Gospel movement. That may be something of an oversimplification of the connection between Social Gospel and Settlement House movements. The ties to urban missions and the Salvation Army are probably clearer and more easily traced than those to the Settlement House movement and to Addams. The ties to George Bush's 'Compassionate Conservatism' and Faith-based Services initiatives are probably also worth exploring here.
