License to Thrive

Welcome to the License to Thrive (L2T) community!

Although most closely associated with sports, the Title IX legislation, passed in 1972, opened doors and created opportunities for girls and women in numerous areas including education, science, law, business and technology as well as sports.  Over the next six (6) months, we’ll share stories of female achievement, leadership and success as well as the obstacles and challenges still to be overcome.

We look forward to hearing your thoughts and opinions about Title IX and women’s leadership and encourage you to share stories about the girls and women in your lives who are role models and leaders.  Please tell your friends, family and colleagues about the L2T community so they can join us as well.

On March 30, 2008, please join us for the “License to Thrive:  Title IX at 35” television special airing on ESPN2.

Thanks for your support.

The L2T team
