Follow-Up Public Posting

Susan Brinchman, formerly of Fairfield and now the Director of The Center for School Mold Help had a second posting at WestportNow.

In it she states:

Parents are correct to be highly concerned, I applaud this community for organizing and forcing school officials to take corrective action.

As Director of The Center for School Mold Help, and a disabled teacher from working in two damp and moldy schools in the past 7 years, I can assure you I never would have stepped foot in either of those schools had I known what ill health would follow.

Mold in our schools is a very serious public health threat that is not being adequately addressed by all health authorities and needs to be. We have found public health authorities all over the nation to be very uninformed about this significant public health problem. They tend to minimize it and don’t conduct proper testing to discover the extent of the problems. Government seems to back government, rather than trying to protect the occupants of damp schools.

I am a former lifelong Fairfield resident, with my family in Southport going back to the mid-1800’s in that area, now living in So.CA. My best to all of you.
