2022 Glitter Into Gold Gala:
CELEBRATING THE 50TH ANNIVERSARY OF TITLE IX
The 2022 Glitter into Gold Gala held in Washington, DC featured, not only the expansive work of WLAG, but also an intentional celebration of the 50th Anniversary of Title IX, which prohibits sex-based discrimination in any education program that receives funding from the federal government. While this monumental decision furthered the ability for women & girls to participate in male-dominated sports, we know the work isn’t over.
