Discussion of Sex Discrimination Legal Cases at AAUW Meeting

The American Association of University Women Hendersonville branch invites the public to attend its Feb. 8 program on the national organization’s Legal Advocacy Fund (LAF). This fund supports eligible adults who are challenging sex discrimination in higher education and the workplace. Examples of sex discrimination, which can affect both women and men, are unfair pay, pregnancy discrimination, sexual harassment, sexual assault, and violations of Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972. The LAF informs people of their rights and supports them as they pursue their cases through the legal system. The Feb. 8 program will include status reports on several current cases. The meeting begins at 9:30am. Join the group for a social period, followed by the program, at Trinity Presbyterian Church, 900 Blythe St., Hendersonville.
