The deepening housing crisis: "$60 billion in back rent, and no real path forward"

from The Week in Philly from KYW Newsradio · host Audacy

Ever since the start of the pandemic, the people on the wrong side of the K-shaped recovery have taken it on the chin. So many people have lost income and savings, and the number of people falling behind on the rent or the mortgage is truly hard to fathom. So what's a concrete, actually helpful thing that people can do to try and keep from losing their home? The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation published what they call a roadmap to help prevent people from losing housing during the pandemic. Avenel Joseph, Vice President of Policy at the RWJF joins KYW Newsradio In Depth to talk about the roadmap and break down some changes at the local and national level that need to happen to advance equity in housing.
