Impeachment. How Does It Work?

Keeping the heat on this winter could come at a steep price.

Heating oil costs are expected to be about 50 percent higher than last year, according to The National Energy Assistance Directors Association.

This is putting even more pressure on Connecticut residents already struggling with the rising cost of living.

So what's driving the increase, and what are state lawmakers doing to help?

This hour, we look at how families, low-income residents, and homeless shelters across Connecticut are bracing for a difficult winter.

Guests:
Abigail Brone: Housing reporter, Connecticut Public
Sarah Fox: Chief Executive Officer, The Coalition to End Homelessness
Lisa Tepper-Bates: CEO of United Way of Connecticut

As temperatures drop, the cost of staying warm is on the rise

The days are getting colder and darker!

Winter has the power to affect our mood. For some, the change of season brings on the “winter blues” and for others, it brings on a form of clinical depression called Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD). If you’re a Connecticut farmer, the season also poses unique challenges.

This hour, we think about the ways that the change of season can change our mood and how we might embrace winter as a time to slow down.

Guests:
Dr. Paul Desan: Associate Professor in the Department of Psychology at the Yale School of Medicine and the Director of The Winter Depression Research Clinic at the Yale School of Medicine
Becca Toms: Wellness Coordinator at the New CT Farmers Alliance
Dr. Kari Liebowitz: Health Psychologist and author of the book, “How to Winter”
