OFFICIAL EXPLANATION
D
There are two key differences among the choices: the opening few words, and the form of the verb "indicating". The thing that indicates "Jane Addams's desire" is "Hull House's founding" of various things. Ignoring the lengthy list for now, "Hull Houses' founding" is a singular noun, meaning that the proper form of the verb is "indicates". That eliminates (A) and (E).
Both (B) and (C) are wrong because they deviate from the list structure in the non-underlined part of the sentence. Hull House founded (a) "a public kitchen"; (b) "a sociological institution"; "and (c) "schools for adults and young children". If you substitute the phrases in (B) or (C) for the final item in that list, the word "founded" or "founding" is redundant. As part of the list, it is clear that that item was founded by Hull House. Therefore, (D) is correct.
