The Kentucky Extension Homemakers Association (KEHA) is a volunteer organization that works to improve the quality of life for families and communities through leadership development, volunteer service and education.
The organization was developed in cooperation with the University of Kentucky Cooperative Extension Service.  
Across Kentucky, KEHA members and clubs work closely with Cooperative Extension to provide educational programming and coordinate community activities.  

If you find yourself feeling down, depressed, moody or irritable during a particular time of the year, you may suffer from seasonal affective disorder (SAD).
According to the Mayo Clinic, SAD is a type of depression linked to seasonal changes, and it begins and ends around the same time every year.
For the majority of people, symptoms start in the fall or winter but quit with the coming of spring or early summer.
