Who We Are
Northern Diné Relief Effort (formerly Northern Diné COVID-19 Relief Effort ) is a volunteer coalition network effort serving 20 Northern Navajo Nation Agency communities, centered in Shiprock, the largest chapter community on the eastern half of the Navajo Nation. The effort came together and operated continuously from March 26, 2020 - May 2024, taking on coordination of community-based networks that incorporated leadership of team members of Shiprock Search & Rescue, (formerly Shiprock ALERT). The target from the beginning has been provision of resources for community self-reliance in finding and helping those in most need, and home deliveries to those lacking phone/internet or otherwise needing extraordinary support in the most desolate areas. Relief primarily addressed COVID, continuing after COVID to maintain interlocking aid networks of donors and recipients based on a mile-to-mile and widening circle (or wheel) framework. Coordination efforts through NDCVRE were suspended with the sudden illness of our volunteer relief leader, Eric Trevizo. As of July 2, 2025, very limited relief operations may resume in collaboration with Roof Butte Search & Rescue.
