It follows our journey in search of methods to collect meaningful data and reveals the successes and struggles encountered. We address the question: “How do we maximize cultural sensitivity as white women doing research with Aboriginal people?” We share our experience in finding ways to do culturally sensitive research. The many ways that participants tell their stories, how to achieve a degree of trust and rapport with the communities, the elders, the individuals, their families and the service providers is examined.]
