Our Story
It all started with a single connection.
Heterotaxy Connection began with a simple phone call between two mothers searching for answers. When Necia answered Heather’s call from the toy aisle at Target, it sparked a connection that grew first into a community and eventually into an international organization dedicated to supporting families and improving outcomes for those affected by Heterotaxy around the world.
