Kittredge Helped To Financially Support The Henry Street Settlement Founded By Her Close Friend Lillian Wald And Even Lived At The Settlement Briefly In The Early 1900S. Kittredge Became A Household Adviser Because She Believed In The Importance Of The Home In National Life And Because She Was Shocked By The Conditions In Which Many Immigrants Lived. Like Christine Frederick She Aimed To Improve Household Management In The United States With A Focus On Making Better Safer Food And Furnishings Available To Women With Little Money And Teaching Them Up-To-Date Household Management Technique. Under The Umbrella Title Association Of Practical Housekeeping Centers She Established The First Of Several "Model Flats" In A New York City Tenement In 1902 Declaring: "If Household Administration Is To Take Its Place In The Front Rank With The Other Professions Of The Day Educators As Well As Women Must Wake Up And Realize That The Whole Housekeeping Question Is Dependent Upon Scientific Management Efficiency Skilled Labor And Effective Tools." Her 1911 Book Housekeeping Notes: How To Furnish And Keep House In A Tenement Flat Was A Compendium Of Household Management Lessons Taught In These Centers And Her 1918 Book The Home And Its Management Offered Practical Advice On Thrift In Furnishing A Home As Well As In Shopping For Daily Necessities. She Became The Most Famous Home Economist Also Known Then As Home Adviser Of Her Day. In 1915 She Attended The International Women's Congress For Peace And Freedom At The Hague. She Went Overseas During World War I Working For Herbert Hoover And For The Commission For Relief In Belgium Heading Up The Child-Feeding Program In France And Belgium. She Saw Her Work For The War Effort As Analogous To Her Work On Household Management: Both Were Forms Of National Service.
