πŸŽ₯Epstein hates us “Title IX [c-words]” + our support for student survivors

February 25. 2026
By Noreen Farrell, Executive Director


Recently, my team and I became aware of 2 things that impact our community of survivors and supporters:

  1. We Title IX advocates got a shout out in the Epstein files: In an email to a professor accused of serial sexual misconduct, Epstein wrote: β€œMy friends in the White House HATE the Title IX c-words.” (Except, of course, he didn’t say β€œc-words.”)
  2. In 2025, the Dept. of Education’s Office for Civil Rights failed to resolve a single sexual assault/harassment claim for the first time in its nearly 50-year history.

I comment on both these developments in my monthly video address to supporters below.
