Recruitment Challenges  Lack of transportation and poor economic conditions  Absence of support  Systemic barriers, including racism, cultural insensitivity, and lack of relationships between Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal people  Mainstream hierarchical titles (such as President) conflicting with community values  Lack of self-esteem and feeling of purpose  Family status: single mothers and caregivers for Elders, family and extended family crises, such as poverty, crime, incarceration, and substance abuse 14Teresa Edwards March 2012
