Swier Law Firm Authors Title IX Report for South Dakota's School Leaders

Scott Swier of Swier Law Firm's Education Law Practice Group recently published a report titled South Dakota Public School Leaders and Title IX.

Title IX of the 1972 Education Amendments requires schools receiving federal funding to combat sexual violence and harassment, and respond to victims' needs in order to ensure that all students have equal access to education. Title IX protects any person from sex-based discrimination, regardless of their sex, gender identity, or gender expression. Female, male, and gender non-conforming students, faculty, and staff are protected.

Swier Law Firm's report provides readers with a valuable resource and answers to their most common Title IX questions.
