She served as president of the Cambridge (Mass.) Political Equality Association (1911-1915), and congressional chair of the Middlesex County and Massachusetts Woman Suffrage Association (1914-1917), and was a member of the National Council of the National American Woman Suffrage Association (1915-1917).
