NEW MEXICO – The Navajo Nation continues to make steady progress under its ARPA housing project, delivering newly completed homes to families in the communities of Thoreau and Pinedale, New Mexico. Four home key turnovers took place on Monday, November 10, marking another meaningful step forward in providing safe, modern housing for Navajo families.
The Navajo Nation Community Housing and Infrastructure Department (CHID) led the coordination and inspections for each site as families received their new homes. Families shared heartfelt appreciation for the crews and staff who worked long days traveling between communities to keep the project moving. President Nygren also thanked the community representatives who assisted with coordinating the key turnovers and supporting families throughout the process.
The Division of Community Development (DCD), CHID, and the Navajo Tribal Utility Authority (NTUA) continue working together to prepare sites, complete inspections, and advance the process for power and water connections.
The ARPA housing project continues to demonstrate that when the Navajo Nation works together from field crews and inspectors to chapter leaders and utility teams real change happens. Homes are taking shape, keys are being handed over, and hope is growing in communities across the Nation.
President Nygren shared his enthusiasm to keep building on this momentum and continue helping deliver homes across the Navajo Nation through the “1,000 Homes Initiative,” reminding families that the work is strong, the progress is real, and the future is being built one home at a time.
