    Furman Center and Institute for Education and Social Policy Release Study on Foreclosures and Kids

    April 20th 2011

    April 20, 2011: The second in a two-part series on the effects of the foreclosure crisis on children, Foreclosure and Kids: Does Losing Your Home Mean Losing Your School? addresses the relationship between foreclosure and student mobility. New York University’s Institute for Education and Social Policy (IESP) and Furman Center for Real Estate and Urban Policy find that New York City public school students living in buildings entering foreclosure are more likely to switch schools than their peers, less likely to leave the school system, and that their new schools tend to be lower performing than the ones they left. Read the press release. The next stage in this research will examine the effects of housing instability on children’s educational outcomes. Read more »

    Furman Center and IESP Recieve MacArthur Grant to Study Impact of Foreclosures on School Performance

    February 7th 2011

    February 7, 2011: NYU’s Furman Center and the Institute for Education and Social Policy have been named one of nine MacArthur Foundation grant recipients, as part of the Foundation’s $25 million initiative on How Housing Matters to Families and Communities.

After a competitive selection process, NYU’s Furman Center and Institute for Education and Social Policy, along with researchers from the University of Connecticut, the Institute for Policy Research at Northwestern University, and the School of Public and Environmental Affairs at Indiana University, were awarded an $800,000 award for research into the impact of housing instability due to foreclosure on school performance.
