Teddy Bear

Height, in 10.00

Sometimes children need something soft to hold while the adults handle the hard things.

The My Voice Matters Teddy Bear was created to offer a familiar, comforting companion for children experiencing difficult, stressful, unfamiliar, or overwhelming situations.

A hospital visit. A new placement. A difficult appointment. A family transition. A meeting with unfamiliar adults. A scary day. Or simply a moment when a child needs something of their own to hold close.

On its little white T-shirt is a message we want every child to know:

MY VOICE MATTERS.

Because even when children are surrounded by adults making important decisions, their feelings, experiences, questions, fears, and voices still matter.

This bear can accompany a child into waiting rooms, advocacy centers, schools, shelters, family-service settings, foster and kinship-care transitions, or simply curl up beside them at home. It can also be given by advocates, social workers, educators, healthcare professionals, family-support organizations, and caregivers as a tangible reminder:

You are seen.

You are heard.

You matter.

Product Details:

• Approximately 7" × 10"

• Soft 100% polyester plush

• Stitched features

• Removable white T-shirt

• T-shirt can be hand-washed separately

Created by The AFTER Organization as part of our commitment to helping children and families navigate complicated systems while keeping the person at the center of them.

Your voice matters. Always.

Never an “AFTER” Thought.
