A doctor in Chinatown doles out herbal remedies. A photographer’s passion brings healing to grieving families. A suburban wrestling coach faces his toughest match, and, equine therapy for people with disabilities.

Three of these stories are about Chicagoans improving their lives and the lives of people around them. A man gives back to his community after a stint in prison. Yoga and meditation at Cook County Jail. A Chicago mentoring program that pairs at risk youth with local businesses. And one story is about a suburban man who is moving forward literally: he runs barefoot – year round!
