The house will allow Broken Wings to accomplish our wholistic mission. Please donate today to help us help people regain control of their lives.

We are committed to restoring our clients to their optimal potential and providing ongoing lifelong support through our alumni program.
VISION
Restoring lives to people who are broken by addiction and trauma.

Once our residential home is established, clients can come and heal in a safe holistic environment. Therapeutic interventions will aim to get at the root cause and seek healing from triggers with effective interventions to avoid relapse. Interventions include: animal therapy, garden therapy, EMDR, talk therapy, group therapy, therapeutic massage, spirituality, developing life skills, nutrition education and a twelve step program with family involvement. We offer lifelong alumni services to clients for support to prevent relapse.

Missigman AND Husbands Families 14
CENTRAL FLORIDA MONTHLY
he beautiful Harmony area is home to many people making their mark on the community. One of Harmony’s residents, Rae Missigman, is making her mark as an artist all over the world. Rae and her family moved to the Harmony area four years ago and love the amenities nearby. The laid-back vibe of the community offers a nice change from the hustle and bustle of the downtown Orlando area. After downsizing from sprawling property landscapes, the family enjoys their new lifestyle. The Missigmans are traveling frequently these days. With one son in college at Georgetown and another daughter whose musical endeavors take her all over the world,
To learn more about Rae and her artistic journey follow her on Instagram at @raemissigman
The Missigman Family (from left to right: Gabi, Ethan, Carl, Lincoln, Rae, Olivia, Goldie, Sophia, Nora and Camille)
they’ve had to pack their bags often and they enjoy not being tied down by the constraints of having lots of land. Rae herself is used to the travel, she spent 20 years as a flight attendant. However, having a job in the corporate world left something to be desired. That is one of the things that lead her to become an artist, although she didn’t think she deserved that title to begin with. She never painted landscapes or portraits so she didn’t classify herself as an artist. “I’ve always just liked to make things, I’ve never been someone to just go and buy something,” says Rae, “that has evolved over time from teaching workshops to teaching online classes and much more.” Rae attributes most of her success and growth to social media,
something she wasn’t always a big fan of in the past. It’s led to many opportunities and even a book to be released in September. You can follow Rae’s art and reach out on Instagram, @raemissigman. She says it’s been a tough process, but one of the best parts has been the amazing people who have helped her on this journey. Rae says that “you just don’t meet ugly people in this industry. Everyone has been so kind, helpful, and happy.” It has also led to some surreal experiences, such as seeing her art on a magazine cover at Barnes and Noble while visiting her son in Washington, D.C. The best part for Rae is that she can focus on her craft and creating while still being
available to her family. Two of her daughters, Gabi and Camille, live in Harmony and work at Champion’s Grill, a favorite local eatery by the Harmony Golf Club. Thanks to the proximity, Rae gets to spend time working on her art and quality time with her children and grandchildren. That much needed time was something she was not willing to sacrifice. In fact, she credits her family with the support and love (left to right) that has made her journey possible. Amishi and Sanjay Parekh As for local activities, the Missigman family enjoys going to the Harmony Farmer’s Market. It has become a tradition for them. They love taking their grandchildren there on the weekends or to the food trucks that stop in the local area

on weeknights. The variety offered by the vendors at the market is the biggest draw. “Every week I see more and more vendors showing up with all kinds of cool stuff,” says Rae. She is even thinking of setting up a booth for her art. “It would be a really fun mix to add into what’s happening.” Feeling part of the growth is one of the most rewarding things they’ve enjoyed about being part of the expanding community of Harmony. The Husbands family is also making their mark on the community of Harmony. Caitlin and Shane recently moved to Harmony from the St. Cloud area and immediately fell in love. They also love the relaxed atmosphere of the community coupled with it being close to numerous places. Caitlyn works with the social committee of Harmony and helps plan all of the events for their community. They recently planned a movie night and have multiple events coming up. “I get to work with a really fun group of women planning these events,” says Caitlin. She feels that it’s a close-knit feel that you don’t get in a lot of communities. “Everyone gets together and looks out for each other instead of keeping to themselves.” They also love having their children’s school so close to home, the Harmony Community School is only a block away. The family says that their kids enjoy being close to all of their friends and being able to play with them easily. Her husband, Shane, runs a local shipping company in nearby Kissimmee. He has run the Goin’ Postal location there for over 10 years. They enjoy spending time together as a family and entertaining neighbors and other family members. If you’re looking for some of the best ribs around, look no further than Shane’s ceramic green egg. He enjoys mastering the Barbecue craft and feeding everyone he can. They also are fond of being close to the beach. The Harmony location makes it easy to get there and enjoy swimming and fishing. The family credits all of these factors for having made the decision to move one of the best they’ve made. The Husbands say that they are extremely excited to be a part of Harmony and honored to be featured in Central Florida Monthly. Harmony combines top-rated schools, tons of recreation options and eco-friendly development standards nestled amidst lakes, trails and neighborhood parks. There’s even a championship golf course and a Town Square that provides a classic small town feel. Harmony is one of the largest “green” communities in Florida, with beautiful tree-lined streets, sparkling lakes with undeveloped shorelines and high standards for eco-friendly construction, water conservation and recycling. It’s a special place to raise a family, meet new friends and enjoy the good life.
