Free and open to the public.

Join us for an evening presentation and community discussion exploring the hidden impacts of water-damaged buildings, indoor air quality, and environmental health in Brandon. 

Drawing from scientific research, building science, personal experience, and extensive observations, this presentation examines how aging buildings, chronic moisture, deferred maintenance, and inadequate environmental awareness may affect housing quality, public safety, health, education, and long-term community resilience. 

  • Topics will include: 

  • • Water damage and indoor environmental quality 

  • • Hidden infrastructure and public safety concerns 

  • • Health impacts of chronic exposure to damp buildings 

  • • Housing and economic implications 

  • • Gaps in public and medical awareness 

  • • Opportunities for healthier buildings and greater community resilience 

The event will conclude with a community discussion and Q&A focused on practical next steps and long-term opportunities for Brandon.
