According the the AJC there were more than 10-thousand foreclosures in February.  This couldn't be a good sign for the economy.  How are people dealing with this?

Odette Yousef did a piece this morning on WABE talking about a federal program aimed at renovating foreclosed homes and getting them back in the hands of those in need.  Pretty good story - even though it talks about the frustrations in making the program work, it's good to know there are initiatives.

Maybe Odette can say more about how people can tap into this program and purchase these homes?  or become aware of them?
