Global Indoor Health Network Inc

Do you know someone who is ill because of mold, asbestos, lead, radon, chemicals, pesticides, formaldehyde or other contaminants in their homes, schools or businesses?  Do you have a friend or family member whose home was damaged by a flood, hurricane, or storm or had other types of water damage?  If you answered yes to these questions, please tell your friends, families and coworkers about the Global Indoor Health Network and ask them to join us and help support our mission and vision. 

We have united with experts and laypersons around the world to create the Global Indoor Health Network to spread the truth about this important public health issue.  We are growing rapidly and have members throughout the United States and in eight other countries.

The Global Indoor Health Network is a 501(c)(3) organization dedicated to providing education and awareness of the health effects of mold and other indoor contaminants.  Our worldwide network of scientists, physicians, researchers, indoor air quality experts, attorneys, teachers, injured workers, advocates and others are working together to promote healthy indoor environments in homes, schools and businesses.  We have united to share our collective knowledge, expertise and life experiences to advance the understanding and awareness of this very important public health issue.

Our mission is to proactively participate with others in the public and private sector to promote accurate health policy, strive for consistent guidelines, and advance education and awareness to ensure healthy indoor environments for individuals and families around the globe.

Our vision is a global community of individuals and organizations working together to ensure that comprehensive information and guidance concerning medical treatment, investigative techniques and solutions are available to address the effects of contaminants in the indoor environment of homes, schools and businesses.

According to one report, "Indoor air pollution is a growing problem in the United States and accounts for up to 50% of all illnesses."  And, the World Health Organization states "Indoor air pollution--such as dampness from mould, chemicals and other biological agents--is a major cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide." 

There are many factors that affect indoor air quality. Our primary focus is on the contaminants in water-damaged buildings. These contaminants include molds, mycotoxins, volatile organic compounds, microbial particulates, proteins, galactomannans, endotoxins and bacteria.  These water-damage events can occur in connection with floods, hurricanes, construction defects, roof leaks, foundation problems, plumbing leaks, appliance leaks, condensation, or as a result of buildings materials that can become wet during storage, transportation and construction.  Some of the additional factors that affect indoor air quality include radon, lead, asbestos, pesticides, formaldehyde, carbon monoxide, cleaning products, off-gassing from carpets, furniture and paint, air fresheners, fragrances, and a wide variety of other toxins and chemicals.

The people who have been harmed by contaminants inside their homes, schools and businesses come from all walks of life around the globe.  Affected persons include both genders, all ages, those unborn and soon-to-be-born, homemakers, stay-at-home moms, teachers and school children, veterans, retirees, disabled individuals, workers of all levels and skills, farmers, professionals, owners of businesses large and small, and all degrees of affluence.  In short, anyone who spends time indoors is at risk.
