Foreclosures Add to Health Problems, Report Says
Housing foreclosures can contribute to physical and mental health problems among the people and families involved, according to a new report from the Alameda County Public Health Department and the housing rights group Causa Justa/Just Cause. For the report, investigators surveyed nearly 400 residents of two Oakland neighborhoods that were particularly affected by foreclosures.
