MPR: Foreclosure is Even Harder for Single Women


As part of Minnesota Public Radio's ongoing series on foreclosures in Minnesota, Annie Baxter has broadcast a piece on the unique challenges facing single-female headed households facing foreclosure.

The piece, which first aired on Tuesday, June 16th and is now available online, includes some stats (graphic) on homebuyers, an interview with Ed Nelson from the Center, as well as a client that was assisted by the Neighborhood Development Alliance (NeDA) in St. Paul. NeDA is a member of the Center's network of foreclosure prevention providers.

The on-line article, including a link to the recorded broadcast, is here.
