I think the mandate is as many as possible, recognizing that it took 13 years for me to finish my training. I don't know, Patricia's probably close to the same amount of time. Having people come out of whatever it was in communities that challenged them in the first place to become strong enough, and then to go through a program, takes time. We understand that the natural helpers in communities are often hired as community health workers or work in the band office or do other things, and take on those roles. To provide the level of education that's really needed for people to succeed in those roles without burning out, to have the support they need to be able to do the work, is very challenging.
