Mia Miller
As an avid disability rights advocate, intersectional feminist, and transgender healthcare supporter, Mia is fervent about the rights and equity of others. Mia is one of the founding members of Troop 363, the first all-female Boy Scouts of America (BSA) troop in New Braunfels, TX. In 2023, they became the first African-American in their troop to earn the rank of Life Scout, the second-highest rank awarded to scouts. In addition to scouting, Mia furthered their education in maternal health, feminism, and reproductive justice by attending a Spelman Early College biology program in the summer of 2023. As they prepare for their new chapter in upper education, Mia plans to pursue a BA in both exercise science and psychology with a minor in women & gender studies.
