Summary

Building Capacity and Healing: A First Nations-Led Educational Pathway for Psychedelic-Assisted Therapy is an educational initiative led by the First Nations Health and Social Secretariat of Manitoba (FNHSSM). The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if a First Nations-led, culturally grounded education program for psychedelic-assisted therapy is feasible and acceptable by health practitioners working within First Nations communities. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Is a First Nations-led educational and culturally grounded intervention feasible in a land-based setting? * Do participants complete the intervention and follow-up assessments? * Does a First Nations-led program improve acceptability and knowledge comprehension of psychedelic-assisted therapy? Researchers will compare quantitative and qualitative data from those in the intervention who receive land-based training compared to virtual training modules to see if it improves acceptability, adherence, and knowledge comprehension. Participants will acquire a full medicine bundle (spiritual, ethical, cultural, and scientific knowledge) through land-based teachings with respected Elders and Knowledge Keepers. No medicine administration occurs in this study.
