Title VI and Title VII K12 Compliance

Dive into the latest guidance from the Department of Education, Office for Civil Rights!

Two federal laws (Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964) set forth protections from discrimination based on specific categories, including race and national origin. On March 14, 2024 added guidance was released.

Educational institutions must be aware of the scope of these protections. Indeed, federal agencies often expect that educational institutions will provide training on laws that prohibit discrimination and harassment.
