Intergenerational Effects of Foreclosure

About this event

Six million families lost their homes through foreclosure in the wake of the 2008 financial crisis and Great Recession. While the short-run effects of foreclosure on residential mobility and local housing markets are well documented, less is known about the potential impacts on children. Matthew Jacob, a PhD candidate and Meyer Fellow, will present his research with Trevor Bakker on the intergenerational effects of foreclosure on children's college attendance, earnings, and criminal justice involvement in adulthood, followed by a conversation with Chris Herbert.
