Title IX not only prohibits discrimination on the basis of sex, but also prohibits sexual harassment, sexual violence, and other forms of sex discrimination. This means that if you are an individual who has experienced any of these forms of misconduct in an educational setting that receives federal funding, you have the right to be protected under Title IX.
Sexual harassment is defined as any unwelcome conduct of a sexual nature, including but not limited to, sexual advances, requests for sexual favors, and other verbal, nonverbal, or physical conduct of a sexual nature. Sexual violence is defined as physical sexual acts perpetrated against a person's will or where a person is incapable of giving consent due to the use of drugs, alcohol, or other factors.
Title IX requires educational institutions to take prompt and effective steps to end the harassment, prevent its recurrence, and remedy its effects. This includes providing support and accommodations for the victim, such as counseling and academic support, as well as taking disciplinary action against the perpetrator.
It is important to note that victims of sexual harassment or violence have the right to file a complaint with the institution or to file a complaint with the Office for Civil Rights. Additionally, Title IX also provides for the right to a fair and impartial investigation and hearing process.
At Title IX Guardian, we understand that coming forward about sexual harassment or violence can be difficult and we are here to support and advocate for you throughout the process. Our team of experienced attorneys and advocates will work with you to ensure that your rights are protected and that you receive the support and guidance you need throughout the process.
