The holiday season combined with lack of light can be hard on people in the easiest of times.

This year is proving to be especially difficult with school buildings closed, kids going to school from home and rising COVID-19 cases rising on the Peninsula.

On this episode of the Coffee Table, we'll take on depression and mental health outreach with Jay Bechtol, Executive Director of South Peninsula Behavioral Services, KPBSD school counselor, Lisa Fellows from Homer Middle School and Homer High School, Sierra Moskios from The Rec Room and social worker Irene Saxton from Full Spectrum Health.
