The Navajo Department of Corrections’ Tuba City District jail facility is experiencing a COVID-19 outbreak, according to the agency. 

With $111 million left in the Navajo Nation’s American Rescue Plan Hardship Assistance pot, now may be a good time to apply.

After being canceled in 2020 and 2021 because of COVID-19 restrictions, the Northern Fair is finally back for fairgoers and kicked off on Monday.

After a two-year hiatus, the Northern Navajo Fair has come back to life, marking the transition to fall and the return of the beloved nine-day yé’ii bi cheii ceremony that culminates this weekend.

In a surprising announcement last Sunday, President Joe Biden unequivocally declared that the COVID-19 pandemic is “over” in an interview with 60 Minutes on CBS.

Standing by the packed song and dance arena last Saturday, Delegate Nathanial Brown said coming back together with friends and family amidst the massive all-ages turnout at the Navajo Nation Fair brought “good energy and good vibrations.”
