ADVOCACY IN ACTION
Proposed Rollbacks to Title IX: Last Day for Comment to the Department of Education is January 28, 2019!
Make your voice heard now to reinstate Title IX protections.

The Department of Education's new proposed Title IX regulations significantly narrow the definition of sexual harassment, making it far less likely that K-12 schools will investigate incidents and take appropriate action to protect our youngest and most vulnerable students from sex discrimination.

Your comments matter! The Department of Education must consider all comments before issuing a final rule.
GIRLS HAVE THE RIGHT TO...
...Live in a world where they feel safe physically, emotionally, academically & spiritually.
Welcome 2019 Board President Tracy Jenkins!
