Title IX
Title IX of the Educational Amendments of 1972
“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 educational program or activity receiving Federal financial assistance.”
Parenting and pregnant students have rights under Title IX law. We have supports that may be implemented to assist students as they navigate parenthood.
