Families Lose Homes As Weak Economy, Housing Crisis Drags On

MILLIKEN, CO - OCTOBER 05: Weld County sheriff's deputy Mary Schwartz collects a toddler before removing the bassinet during a home foreclosure eviction on October 5, 2011 in Milliken, Colorado. The owner, Brandie Barbiere, said she had stopped making mortgage payments 11 months before, after she lost more than half her home child care business due to the continued weak economy. The Barbiere family possessions were removed to the front yard by an eviction team and the door locks changed. A nationwide glut of foreclosed homes is expected to depress U.S. housing values for years. (Photo by John Moore/Getty Images)
