The Mission

This story was created to gently support families navigating the beautiful and sometimes uncertain journey of raising a child with special needs. Through warmth, reassurance, and heartfelt storytelling,

Mama’s Heart honors the strength, love, and resilience found within these families.

It is my hope that this book can serve as a comforting resource within your program,  hospital, and home. Child Life programs play such an important role in uplifting and guiding families during vulnerable moments, and I would be deeply honored for you to share Mama’s Heart with the families you support.

This book will be shared with programs throughout the United States, and I truly believe it can spark meaningful conversations, provide reassurance, and remind caregivers that they are not alone. 

I ask you think about using grants or philanthropic funds to purchase the book at a discounted rate for your patients. Please email Allyssa directly at unknown.strength.meyerhofer@gmail.com.
