Equity in Education: Supporting Survivors Under the New Title IX Rule

Audience: KCSDV Member Programs and Staff only

Sponsored by:

Training Description:

In the Spring of 2020, the U.S. Department of Education released its Final Rule under Title IX. The new regulations went into effect August 14, 2020 and direct how educational institutions must address sexual violence and sexual harassment involving students and staff. Join us as we unpack the new regulations and discuss their implications for schools, survivors, and advocates. We will also identify strategies to ensure survivors are supported as they navigate the educational system under the new regulations.

This virtual training is a 2-part training and attendance of both parts is necessary to complete the training. A certificate of attendance will be provided to each participant upon the completion of the 2-part training.

Objectives:

As a result of this training, participants will be better able to:

• Discuss the intent and history of Title IX.
• Identify significant changes in the new Title IX regulations.
• Discuss how the new regulations may impact survivors and schools.
• Identify strategies for effective campus and K-12 advocacy under the new regulations.
