What are the “new research and databases” that Title IX mandates?
Title IX specifically recognizes that additional research on violence against American Indian and Alaska Native women is necessary. It mandates that a “national baseline study” be conducted into the rates of violence among American Indian and Alaska Native women, and that the associated costs of this violence be estimated. The 2005 reauthorization of the Violence Against Women Act authorizes a national tribal sex offender and protection order registry to assist tribal governments and law enforcement in implementing these protections.
