===Urban Indigenous People===
* 25% of First Nations people live in medium- to large-sized urban centres.
* In addition, many people who identify themselves as Indigenous, but are not associated with a specific group reside in urban centres.
* The urban Indigenous population tends to be young and very mobile, changing residences frequently.
* First Nations individuals will often move from home communities (i.e. Reserves to urban settings and back).
* This high rate of mobility creates some challenges for accessing and providing services, particularly services such as education, employment training and housing.
* While some individuals will access services through their specific community organizations, others do not associate with or have connections to such communities.
