The League worked for passage of Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972, which prohibits sex discrimination in educational institutions that receive federal aid. This opened up sports and athletics to girls, exposing us to the lessons these experiences offer. Subsequently, the League has focused on thwarting congressional attempts to dilute Title IX, as well as on advancing federal enforcement efforts. #WomensHistoryMonth #PressForProgress Watch the video below to hear about how Title IX allowed two women to participate in athletics and how that participation impacted their lives.
