Chizh For Cheii

Take your kid to work day! NMSU hosted our annual Zuni Mountains Collaborative partners meeting. Chizh For Cheii updates to our team partners as we develop more expansion of our non profit organization efforts. It was a good time with our teams/friends. My daughter got to see the deeper working details of Chizh For Cheii as how many are truly involved with bringing warmth to elders and those in need. Thank you to our collab partners for the good food and sharing some laughs. Daughter and I, took a field trip on our own to learn about uranium mines. (Fun fact) did you know there’s some areas of Chizh For Cheii we will not harvest wood due to uranium downwinds from open mines left from over 40 years ago??? Yup true. Everything that is wood, still involves all the problems and challenges we face on Navajo Nation. From substance abuse to forest restoration land management, from environmental issues to lack of mental health interventions. I believe we at Chizh For Cheii have made some solutions to building strong warriors for strong actions to big problems. We’re getting somewhere, slowly but this is an all or nothing matter. What started as a sober solution for myself, to just move wood in my old tour van to now speaking at universities with likeminded people who want to solve problems for human beings. It’s a good feeling I owe all to my Creator.
