After former USA Gymnastics physician Larry Nassar was sentencedto a maximum of 175 years in prison earlier this year for sexually assaulting girls and young women he treated over the span of his career, the organization hiredformer California Republican Congresswoman Mary Bono to take his place.

Bono used to work for the law firm Faegre Baker Daniels, which represented Nassar and reportedly provided"false excuses" for his absence from 2015 gymnastic events instead of revealing to patients and parents that he was under investigation due to sexual assault allegations.

In an op-ed published Monday in The Boston Globe, Raisman wrote about how adults can fight the stigma surrounding child abuse, writing, "I am still hurting from the sexual abuse I suffered as a young athlete."

"Prevention is stigmatized, disclosure is stigmatized, reporting is stigmatized, prosecuting is stigmatized, talking publicly is stigmatized. No wonder it's a silent epidemic," she wrote. "Why does society make survivors feel so afraid to share our stories? Abusers should be the ones to feel shame and guilt and be judged, not survivors. It is completely backwards, and we need to flip the switch."

Raisman recently helped launch the #FlipTheSwitch Campaignin the hopes of making youth sports safer. Using the campaign's website, adults can easily take a free Darkness to LightStewards of Children online training course to educate themselves on how to prevent child sexual abuse.
