Inclusion Criteria: * Experience working with or a member of an Indigenous population: Experience working with First Nations, Inuit, or Metis people in the capacity of a therapist, clinician, mental health practitioner, or community wellness worker. * Connection to community: Participants may reside, work within, or maintain significant connections with an Indigenous community (urban, rural, or on-reserve) to reflect the diversity of Indigenous contexts. * Age: Adults aged 18 and older to ensure participants can provide informed consent. * Availability to complete training and evaluation sessions: Participants must be available to complete both the required training components and the follow-up assessments, including participation in the First Nations-specific training if randomized to the intervention group. * Language proficiency: Proficiency in the language(s) used for the study (English or an Indigenous language if culturally appropriate) to ensure effective communication. * Stable health status: Participants should be in a relatively stable physical and mental health condition to ensure their ability to participate without compromising their well-being. * Access to support: Participants should have access to a support network or resources (e.g., counsellors, family, or community support) during the study to address any emotional or psychological distress that may arise. Exclusion Criteria: * Active Substance Use Disorder Without Stability: Individuals actively using substances in a way that would impede participation or pose safety concerns during study activities * Inability to Provide Informed Consent Individuals who cannot fully understand the study's purpose or consent process due to cognitive impairments or other reasons. * Lack of Community Connection: Individuals with no connection to or work with Indigenous communities, as this connection is integral to the study's cultural and contextual relevance. * Concurrent Participation in Conflicting Studies: Individuals participating in other research studies with similar goals or interventions in the last 12-months, to avoid conflicting influences or overburdening the participant. * Unwillingness to Engage: Individuals unwilling or unable to fully engage in study activities, such as interviews, focus groups, or educational pathways.
