Larissa Miller

If you saw the Rio Olympic Games in the female gymnastics category there was a special girl competing. I mean, they all flip and do special things, but this gymnast is not special because of the medals she won or didn't won. She is special because of her story.
Larissa Miller is an australian olympic gymnast. As much as we love her elegance, the thing we love the most about her is her strenght.
Larissa was raped by a extended family member between the ages five and sixteen. She broke the silence being a 23 year-old.
She is now an embassador  for child protection organisation Bravehearts.
Rape is something any child, teenager or adult should go through, and as Larissa, there are many cases of people that suffers in silence. We, as citizens of the world have the responsability to do something about it.
Larissa is an example of the phrase "it is never too late". It is never to late to break the silence and it is never too late to act.
Now, she protects australian kids from sexual abuse cause she knows what it is like to be raped and to keep it as a secret for so long.
Larissa Miller, the HOT team has never been more proud of you. You are protecting the future of the world.
Thank you for being so brave.
