Breaking Down Barriers

This edition of Breaking Down Barriers: A Legal Guide to Title IX and Athletic Opportunities is a guide to educate those subject to athletics discrimination on how to assert a Title IX claim. It describes how private parties can enforce Title IX, with a focus on the rights of student-athletes. It is an important resource, particularly for plaintiffs and their attorneys, but also for legal counsel for universities and other schools; school administrators; women and girls in athletics; and others who are interested in learning about Title IX's legal principles.
