She was a charter member of Freedom, Inc., a voting rights organization which her husband co-founded. She became a life member of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) and was also a member of the National Urban League.[2] She worked on Crime Prevention for the Kansas City Council[2] She was active in The Links Incorporated, a social service organization. In the early 1960's, she opened a shop in Kansas City that specialized in African and other ethic art objects.[6]
