Members belong to Branches in rural communities across the province. The Branches focus on providing Members an opportunity to broaden their knowledge and abilities through participation in meetings. Women's Institutes strive to strengthen families and communities in rural and small town Ontario, making them better places to live.

FWIO's ROSE (rural ontario sharing education) Program is a unique province-wide initiative that is driven by the passion and dedication of WI Members who work to increase awareness, provide support and promote community action.

Tweedsmuir History Books capture and preserve local community history in a unique way. They include history of the earliest settlers, agricultural practices, individual farms, industries that formed local economy, social institutes, public buildings, local Women's Institute Branch and much more.

FWIO has always voiced their concerns for a safe and secure society by collectively writing and presenting resolutions to various levels of government.
