Title IX Rules:

What Campus Advocates Need to Know

 

Wednesday, May 15th, 2024 at 1pm-2:30pm ET

 

On April 19, 2024, the U.S. Department of Education released its final rule on Title IX, the federal civil rights law protecting students from sex discrimination in school settings. Join Cari Simon, one of the top Title IX attorneys representing sexual assault survivors in college and university settings nationwide, to discuss implications this amended rule has for campus advocates and victim assistance professionals.

Presented by:   Cari Simon, Esq. Fierberg National Law Group   Cari Simon is one of the nation's top Title IX attorneys representing survivors of sexual assault, stalking, dating violence, and sexual harassment in University and K–12 settings nationwide.   Ms. Simon graduated cum laude from Harvard Law School and clerked for a judge on the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals.

 

 

 Ms. Simon has been credited with the inclusion of stalking and dating violence in the definition of sexual harassment under Title IX, and her impact litigation ensured universities are responsible under Title IX for sexual violence at fraternity houses.

Ms. Simon represents scores of survivors, both women and men, from junior high to Ph.D. students, as well as faculty and staff. She represents survivors in school and campus grievance proceedings, often from the reporting process through any appeal process, and in obtaining remedies and accommodations to ensure student-survivors may safely and fully access the benefits of their education — ensuring their civil rights are protected and fulfilled.

Ms. Simon also represents survivors in Title IX litigation against Universities and has assisted survivors in filing complaints leading to federal investigations by the Department of Education, Office for Civil Rights, and Clery Compliance Division.

 

Widely regarded as a Gender Violence Policy Expert, Ms. Simon directed the United States Congressional Victims’ Rights Caucus, advises gender-based violence legislative efforts in numerous states, and was appointed to the Sexual Misconduct Advisory Committee by the Colorado Department of Higher Education.

 

Ms. Simon is a sought-after advisor, speaker, and trainer for a wide range of organizations seeking to advance Victims’ Rights across the United States including the National Association of Attorneys General, the National Crime Victims Law Institute, and the National Women’s Law Center.  Ms. Simon is also faculty for the National Organization of Victim Assistance, Campus Advocacy Credential Training, as well as an Ambassador Council Member for the Colorado Coalition Against Sexual Assault.

 

Ms. Simon's work has been featured in The New York Times, The Washington Post, National Public Radio ("NPR"), Good Morning America, and various other media outlets.
