The U.S. Department of Education’s Office for Civil Rights recently released three new resources to support schools that are preparing to implement the amended Title IX regulations published in April 2024.

In issuing the 2024 Title IX Regulations, the USDOE aims to fulfill Title IX’s promise that no person experiences sex discrimination, including sex-based harassment or sexual violence, in federally funded education.

The new Title IX resources include:

  • 2024 Title IX Regulations: Pointers for Implementation, which supports schools by listing key components of the 2024 Title IX regulations.
  • A video on drafting nondiscrimination policies, notices of nondiscrimination and grievance procedures under the 2024 Title IX regulations, which highlights a previously issued resource to help schools draft, adopt and implement policies and procedures that are required under the 2024 Title IX regulations.

These resources complement other previously released technical assistance documents to help implement the 2024 Title IX Regulations, including a fact sheet, a brief overview of key provisions of the final regulations and a resource for drafting Title IX nondiscrimination policies, notices of nondiscrimination and grievance procedures.

As of July 19, 2024, pursuant to federal court orders, the USDOE is currently enjoined from enforcing the 2024 Final Rule in the states of Alaska, Idaho, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, Montana, Ohio, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Virginia, West Virginia and Wyoming; the USDOE is also currently enjoined from enforcing the 2024 Final Rule at the schools on the list located at https://www2.ed.gov/about/offices/list/ocr/docs/list-of-schools-enjoined-from-2024-t9-rule.pdf. Per court order, this list of schools will be supplemented on or before July 26 and may also be supplemented at subsequent times. This resource does not currently apply in those states and schools.
