3:25Now Playing#BREAKING: Congratulations to Australian of the Year, Grace Tame
Grace Tame helped change Tasmanian law to give sexual assault survivors a voice.
At 15-years-old, she was groomed and assaulted by her maths teacher but was unable to share her story, due to the state's laws that barred survivors from speaking out.
A decade later, Grace's work with the #LetHerSpeak campaign led to a fight in the Supreme Court that resulted in Tasmania's Government amending the law in March.
A warning that this video discusses details of sexual assault.
