Gymnast's Healing Journey After Dr. Larry Nassar

The Giving Coast

You can bring transformational healing to survivors of child abuse! The Child Protection Center's 13th Annual Blue Ties & Butterflies gala is just three weeks away on April 10th at the Ritz-Carlton in Sarasota, and we would love for you to share in this magical evening with us. We will be joined by former elite gymnast Emily Joan Meinke, a recipient of the Arthur Ashe Award for Courage (one of the most prestigious ESPY awards) alongside her sister survivors in honor of their bravery in speaking out against the abuse of U.S. Olympic doctor Larry Nassar. Emily will be sharing her story and emphasizing the power we each have in the prevention of child abuse.
