How We'll Work Together

Our engagement approach honors Navajo sovereignty and governance structures, using existing community institutions and multiple culturally appropriate methods to ensure every community has access to the planning process.

  • Chapter-Level Meetings

    Project introductions, updates, and community feedback at planning and regular chapter meetings. Collaboration with Community Land Use Planning Committees to align with existing land use plans.

  • Grazing & Producer Forums

    Coordination with grazing officials, land board members, permittees, and farm boards to discuss rangeland management, livestock concerns, water use, and sustainable farming strategies.

  • Regional Council Sessions

    Participation in council delegate regional meetings and agency regional council meetings to ensure alignment with legislative oversight and cross-district coordination.

  • Digital Engagement

    Plan website with public comment portal, social media engagement, upcoming events, and sign up for updates.

  • Scoping Meetings

    Comprehensive scoping meetings across all 24 council delegate districts, combining education about the ARMP and EIS with substantive community input collection.

  • Draft Review & Final Presentation

    Public review of the draft ARMP and EIS with formal comment periods, followed by final plan presentations explaining how community input shaped the plan.
