Founded in 2013, Know Your IX is a survivor- and youth-led project of Advocates for Youth that aims to empower students to end sexual and dating violence in their schools. We envision a world in which all students can pursue their civil right to educations free from violence and harassment.
We accomplish our mission through:
-Educating college and high school students in the United States about their legal rights to safe educations free from gender-based harms;
-Training, organizing, and supporting student survivor activists in challenging their educational institutions to address violence and discrimination;
-Advocating for policy change at the campus, state, and federal levels to ensure meaningful systemic action to end gender violence.
