In September 2016, a small group of individuals and organizations met intending to develop a meaningful plan to address the condition of Rhode Island public school buildings. Over the next several months, we formed Fix Our Schools Now – A Coalition for Healthy School Environments.
Given the complexity of this issue, the Fix Our Schools Now Coalition actively and deliberately sought to gather information from a variety of industries essential to this effort. On Monday, February 27, 2017, we are holding a public forum to communicate what we have learned.
The speaking agenda is as follows:
4:05-4:50 P.M.
Health, Cognitive Function, Academic Success – Why Indoor Environments Matter
Erika Eitland – PhD Candidate, Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health
Chin Lin – HMFH Architects
Dr. Daphne Koinis Mitchell – Alpert Medical School of Brown University; Hasbro

Julian Rodriguez-Drix – Asthma Program Manager, Rhode Island Department of Health
5:00-5:45 P.M.
