Eviction from rental housing and its links to health: A scoping review

Year: 2024

Type: review

Abstract: • Eviction from rental housing is common throughout the United States and globally. • We synthesize the methods and key findings of recent research on eviction and health. • Most studies found significant links between eviction exposures and poor health. • Some studies found that eviction's impacts were most severe for marginalized groups. • Growing evidence suggests that eviction prevention policies positively impact health.
