After two years as Associate Professor, Harold Richman became Dean and Professor of the School of Social Service Administration. He served as Dean of the SSA from 1969 to 1978.
In 1985, Harold Richman guided the board of Chapin Hall, a residential home created during the American Civil War to care for “half orphans," in redefining its mission. Mr. Richman established Chapin Hall as a university-based research center that conducted research with the express purpose of informing child welfare policy and practice. He helped to shape a field of research around the array of activities and resources needed by all young people to thrive physically, socially, and academically. Professor Richman also led work at Chapin Hall to document and evaluate community-building initiatives and the role philanthropy plays in those efforts.
Harold Richman stepped down as director of Chapin Hall in 2000, but continued as a research fellow and advised research centers in several countries including South Africa, Ireland, Jordan, and Israel.
