Scholars submit public comment in response to proposed Title IX rule
|
|
In June, the U.S. Department of Education issued a proposed rule clarifying that Title IX protects LGBTQI+ students from discrimination and harassment based on their sexual orientation, gender identity, and sex characteristics. Williams Institute scholars submitted a public comment to inform the Department of Education as it finalizes the rule. The comment provided research detailing the persistent discrimination, harassment, and assault faced by LGBT people in educational settings and demonstrated the negative effects of stigma and discrimination on the health and well-being of LGBT people. It also made several recommendations related to enforcement of the rule.
