Re: Lived Experience Advisory Committee First Nations Member Recruitment
that's ok - maybe it's an option for the future when you feel the time is right in your recovery journey.
The appointments are for a term (12-24 months) which means these roles will be open again in future too.

Re: Lived Experience Advisory Committee First Nations Member Recruitment
Yes thanks I had seen this. While I identify as Aboriginal and am accepted by the Aboriginal community as such, I actually don’t look Aboriginal. I think I will leave this opportunity to someone else. I was also not raised in the Aboriginal community

I think you should just jump in and see how you go. I kind of expected you to do it to be honest. I understand if you don’t think you can though
