Housing insecurity is a prevalent public health concern associated with a multitude of adverse health outcomes. Join Aarti Bhat, MS, a PhD candidate in the Demography Dual Degree Program within the Penn State College of Human Development & Family Studies, for a discussion on health implications of housing insecurity across the lifespan.

Midlife and older adults in the U.S. are increasingly entering these phases of life cost-burdened. Bhat's unique research addresses the physical and biological health implications of a range of housing insecurity experiences for these populations. Her work also has implications for policy measures to reduce disparities in housing issues for vulnerable populations-resulting in improved public health.
