Sandy Mair was 14 years old when she dropped out of school and ran away from home. She spent the next three years living on the street. Few street kids ever escape, but Mair's life turned around after the birth of her son, Calvin.

Her son suffered from asthma, so Mair made frequent trips with him to the hospital. It occurred to her on one of those visits that she would make a good nurse. Mair liked to help people, and that kept her so

Marie Smallface Marule still considers herself a radical. Smallface Marule, who was presented the Aboriginal Achievement Award in Education on March 31, may look settled into life with all the creature comforts.
