National Women's Law Center

Making sure that the playing field is level for female athletes is a priority for the National Women's Law Center. Active since the 1972 enactment of Title IX, the federal law that prohibits sex discrimination in education, the Center has worked hard to ensure that women and girls get their fair share of athletic opportunities -- from challenging colleges and universities to distribute athletic scholarships fairly and schools to provide female athletes with equal access to athletic resources, to urging policymakers to require institutions to disclose information regarding athletic equity.
