We believe that our strong partnership with the Navajo Nation is the foundation for all of our work. Building on that foundation, we continually collaborate with other native communities.

We partner with health care teams and community advocates to develop programs that address structural barriers to good health, respond to the burden of disease and bridge gaps in the health care system identified by providers, patients and families

Now in our thirteenth year, we feel well positioned to deepen our partnerships and develop more comprehensive community-solutions to health care needs in the Navajo Nation. We've spent time building the type of organization that can attract and retain dedicated, talented staff.
