Rights and Options


Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 prohibits sex discrimination -which includes sexual violence- in educational programs and activities. All public and private schools, school districts, colleges and universities receiving federal funds must comply with Title IX. Here are some things that you should know about your Title IX rights.

If you want to learn more about your rights, or if you believe that your school is violating federal law, you may contact the U.S. Department of Education, Office for Civil Rights, at 800-421-3481 or ocr@ed.gov. You may also fill out a complaint form online at the OCR website.

Taken from Office for Civil Rights sheet titled "Know Your Rights: Title IX Requires Your School to Address Sexual Violence" (PDF)

Interim measures may be implemented at a later time, even if originally declined, and any put into effect will remain in place until the institution determines that they are no longer necessary.
