Title IX of the Education Amendment Act of 1972 is a Federal Law that states, “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.”
The public is invited to hear panelists discuss what the changes could mean, and how to understand rights, responsibilities, and resources regarding gender discrimination.
