Where did the phrase "Every child matters", come from?

• The Orange Shirt: In 1973, six-year-old Phyllis went to the St. Joseph Mission residential school near Williams Lake, BC. Her grandmother had bought her a bright, shiny orange shirt for her first day, which made her feel excited and important.

• Confiscation: When she arrived at the school, school authorities stripped her, took away her clothes—including the orange shirt—and never gave it back.

• The Feeling That She Didn't Matter: Phyllis later shared that the color orange came to symbolize how her feelings and worth did not matter to the people running the institution.

• Orange Shirt Day: In 2013, a reunion was held to commemorate the residential school's impact, where Phyllis shared her story. This led to the creation of Orange Shirt Day, established on September 30th to honor survivors and remember the children who never returned home.

• A National Rallying Cry: The phrase "Every Child Matters" was adopted as the core slogan for Orange Shirt Day and the broader movement for truth, reconciliation, and awareness surrounding the Canadian Indian residential school system.
