Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 protects people from discrimination based on sex in education programs or activities which receive federal financial assistance. Anyone who believes there has been an act of discrimination on the basis of sex against any person or group in a program or activity that receives U.S. Dept. of Education financial assistance may file a complaint with the Office of Civil Rights under Title IX.
