What is Title IX?

“No person in the United States shall, on the basis of sex, be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under any education program or activity receiving federal financial assistance.”

or survivors and makes it easier to avoid fulfilling said responsibilities. But it’s there. Want to learn more about title IX and whether it would benefit you? Visit www.knowyourix.org
