IWCA Writing
Members of the Irish Women's Citizens Association were usually urban, middle class women who were educated. Many of them were feminists who had been involved in the suffrage movement as members of the Irish Women's Suffrage and Local Government Association that stayed involved with activism after suffrage was achieved. They believed all women were full citizens, and they worked to protect their rights as citizens.

Civil Service Regulation Bill
The Irish Women's Citizens Association worked with other feminist groups, and through the use of letters to the editor and a circular sent to the Dail, the Civil Service Regulation bill was suspended.

Civil Service Amendment Act and Juries Bill
The association argued against the Juries Act on the grounds that as citizens, women had a right to participate in public life, and that women would be beneficial to the legal system as jurors. They wrote letters to the editor and to all the members of the Dail.
