She was a member of various legal commissions established by the League of Swiss Women's Associations ("Bund Schweizerischer Frauenvereine").

In 1928 she was appointed to the national presidency of the "Swiss Association for Women's Voting Rights" ("Schweizerischer Verband für Frauenstimmrecht"), a post she retained till 1940.

Her sister, Eva Reineck, was a professional violinist who built her career in Frankfurt am Main and married a graphic artist of Jewish provenance called David Spear.
