January 26, 2012 (CHICAGO) (WLS) -- Lizzie Harrington came to the Hull House Association as a 17-year-old foster child. She was served by the charity and after graduating from college returned as an employee to serve others.
"If it wasn't for Jane Adams Hull House being a part of my life I don't know if I would have had the direction that has gotten me where I'm at today," Harrington said.
Harrington and 300 of the charity's employees are packing up after 122 years of providing everything from foster care to head start programs to job training. The Hull House Association can no longer afford to stay open.
