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.
