One of the first women to hold an office in the Knights of Labor, Rodgers fought for women's rights in the workplace while raising her ten children. She led a small group of women to organize the Working Women's Union in the 1870s, the first labor union for women in Chicago. In her later years, she helped found a fraternal life insurance organization, the Women's Catholic Order of Foresters, leading the organization for over fifteen years.
