This report examines how the sex equity provisions of the Carl D. Perkins Vocational Education Act have been implemented in 16 states. It focuses on the implementation of the key provisions in the law that affect women and girls: the single parent and homemaker program (8.5 percent set-aside), and the sex equity program (3.5 percent set-aside). The provisions examined are as follows: (1) administration of the 8.5 percent and 3.5 percent set-aside funds; (2) distribution/allocation of the set-aside funds; (3) use of community-based organizations; and (4) support services. The report also includes specific examples of programs and practices that demonstrate positive uses of the set-aside funds and recommended legislative changes. The information in this report was collected by the Vocational Education Task Force from various sources including representatives from community colleges, secondary schools, community-based organizations, women's advocacy groups, sex equity coordinators, and state officials.
