The Navajo Nation has received a $55 million grant to help Navajo homeowners with mortgage payments and home repairs.
Navajo Nation President Buu Nygren said as many as 901 homeowners should qualify for the funds.
The money comes from the American Rescue Plan Act, which provides nearly $10 billion to support homeowners throughout the country who face financial hardships due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The program is open to Navajo homeowners of all income levels within the Four Corner states who live on both tribal lands and in urban areas.
The funds must be used within three years.

PHOENIX — Urban Navajos who own homes off the Navajo Nation will soon receive some unexpected help they’ll want but didn’t need to ask for.
On Sept. 11, Navajo Nation President Buu Nygren told 250 Phoenix metro area Navajo homeowners that the Nation received a $55 million federal grant to provide financial assistance to Navajo homeowners under various Homeowner Assistance Fund programs.
This includes mortgage payments and home repair assistance.
As many as 901 Navajo homeowners should qualify for the money for their homes, he said.
“Make sure we tell everybody,” Nygren told an overflow crowd in the shade outside the historic Phoenix Indian School Visitor Center, one of the remaining buildings from the 100-year-old Indian boarding school.
They were outside because a capacity crowd was already indoors awaiting the same announcement, and Nygren wanted to address those in the 105-degree F heat first.
The Homeowner Assistance Fund was authorized through the American Rescue Plan Act to provide $9.9 billion nationwide to support homeowners who face financial hardships associated with COVID-19, the Nygren said yesterday.
The funds were distributed to states, U.S. territories, and tribes. The Navajo Nation was awarded $55,420,097.
Most federally funded programs are restricted to low- and very-low-income households.
This program allows higher-income Navajo homeowners to receive financial relief from the economic effects of COVID-19, as well.
“Tell your relatives,” Nygren said. “Say the $55 million that came from our government was specifically for Navajo people who are homeowners.”
To launch the process, Nygren signed an agreement with Native Community Capital. The group is a Native-led and operated non-profit corporation that was selected as the sub-recipient to administer the Homeowner Assistance Fund Project activities on behalf of the Navajo Nation.
Native Community Capital is certified by the U.S. Department of the Treasury as a Native Community Development Financial Institution and is a licensed mortgage lender in Arizona and New Mexico.
The program is designed for both higher-income and medium-income homeowners, Native Community Capital CFO Todd Francis said.
As an example, a family of four in Maricopa County in Arizona earning as much as $132,450 a year may be eligible for the tax-free, non-repayable funds to pay their mortgage or repair their homes, he said.
The program will benefit Navajo relatives and their families who reside in both rural remote locations and those in the urban areas of Phoenix, Albuquerque, Denver, Salt Lake City, surrounding smaller cities and towns, and wherever Navajo homeowners live off-reservation, said NCC CEO Dave Castillo.
A significant lack of investment in tribal communities compared to non-Indian communities has resulted in a critical absence of homeownership on tribal lands, particularly for higher-income Native households, he said.
As a result, Navajos with higher incomes tend to purchase or build homes off the Navajo Nation where they can qualify for loans and mortgages to build equity and wealth.
The Center for Indian Country Development reports that 78% of Native people live outside of tribal trust land in counties surrounding their homelands. It is these families the HAF Project will seek to support, Castillo said.
Nygren said the Navajo HAF Project will provide financial assistance to 901 eligible Navajo homeowners to use for qualified expenses in five activities for the next 36 months.
The program will provide financial assistance to eligible Navajo homeowners in the four-state region of Arizona, New Mexico, Utah and Colorado.
Each eligible applicant could receive a maximum amount of $125,000 of combined assistance under various programs.
These include:
Monthly mortgage payment assistance to a maximum assistance level of $72,000 per participant. This is for Navajo homeowners who are delinquent in mortgage payments or at risk of foreclosure due to a loss of household income.
Mortgage reinstatement assistance would give a maximum assistance of $50,000 per participant to those who are in active forbearance, delinquency default status, or are at risk of losing a home.
Mortgage principal reduction assistance that would assist up to $100,000 for those who find the fair market value of their home is now less than the price they paid for it and now may result in a loss when it is sold.
Home repair assistance that would give $100,000 to those who need significant home repairs.
Clear title assistance of up to $30,000 for grant assistance to receive a clear title of their primary residence.
In his 2022 presidential campaign, Nygren committed to helping urban Navajos who have said for years that they felt underserved by the tribal government. He said this grant addresses that.
He said one of his administration’s next goals is to buy or construct a building owned by the Navajo Nation in the metro area to serve urban Navajo Phoenicians.
“Wouldn’t it be nice if we used the entire $55 million this year?” Nygren asked. “I know you committed to live here and to take care of your family. I see a lot of familiar faces and I understand this is where your jobs are. We want you to have access to resources.”
Castillo urged applicants to be sure their applications were complete and submitted early.
“One thing we want to emphasize is to be ready when the information is being requested on the checklist,” he said. “Make sure you have your documents prepared and you get it to our licensed professionals that will be working with you. If you do not, the application will expire in 30 days.”
He said the program has just three years to deploy the $55 million.
“It seems like we could do that quickly but we can only do it quickly if you help us, if you’re ready, and if you submit the information that’s necessary.”
Debbie Nez-Manuel, executive director of the Navajo Nation Division of Human Resources, said visits to other urban areas will be planned, scheduled, and announced by Native Community Capital.
The funds must be used within three years.
So does any of this money go to the Black Indians Tribes? @militantinremission
maybe y'all should start asking for your cut right now cause they got it

Can you survive a haunted house?
The question is not if I would just stare at it from the woods or actually enter it, the question is if I would choose to spend the night or escape for days in a row…
I'm a haunted house,
a ghost lives in me and sometimes it doesn't.
It's dark, so much that nothing can be found easily.
It's messy! It's dusty!
Every small thing is stored carefully even when it shouldn't be!
I've always been fascinated by haunted houses and would love to stay in one. It would be cool and spooky! No one would ever visit me there. No nonsense from stupid people, only silence and chills from the ghostly energy. I can lit scented candles all around the house and play board games with them. At least the ghosts will be more predictable than the humans.
After walking through the whole place I’ll finally go upstairs to the library.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I'm reading a book in the library and one after another book falls from the shelf.
May be some of the ghosts had wishes and dreams they couldn't complete in their mortal life.
May be they are still here because sometimes people die but not their dreams.
Their wishes might have been so strong that they kept them back as souls until they are able to find peace.
May be they need some more time here before they can leave.
Souls need to heal before they can leave this world for the other.
The mortal body is dead, buried, decomposed or burnt to ashes but the soul has suffered too. Where will it go? It’s pure energy…
Tumblr media
May be the books that fell on the floor, that's not just to scare me.
May be they are trying to communicate,
tell me the stories from decades and centuries ago.
The Myths. The Truths.
The kind of secrets and mysteries being guarded by the walls.
Tumblr media
But haunted house shows flashbacks.
Flashbacks she gets:
You know abuse, childhood traumas, I have many flashbacks of them. But still I have love. People are so stupid to not hate a person that should be hated. Many times, almost everyone who hasn't faced anything like this says that why do people return to their abusers, well, let me answer you. Because, we love them and hate ourselves, because we trust (believe) them and not ourselves. Because we are scared of ourselves, of them and everyone around us, but we still feel the safest place is where they are. We return and we just don't know what we're giving ourselves and that we won't forgive ourselves for that. We'll regret and we'll still feel we are guilty, People who face it get them.
When I was only nine, I saw the first murder. A murder in front of my eyes. And, who killed him was the one who was supposed to take care of him. I was six(class 1) when I saw dead body, mysteries, tears, when I heard screams, cries of people who'll never laugh again, screams of people who lost their loved ones, and I saw some really silent people who'll never laugh again.
Tumblr media
These flashbacks can take a toll on us, make us feel everything all over again. They can drain us mentally and physically. Run again and again inside our heads. We stop loving ourselves, make wrong decisions and stop caring about everything else.
We enter the worst phase of our life and the darkness drags us in to the depths.
Heart is a haunted house.
And I'm neither a human nor a ghost.
I'm not a mix up of angel and devil in one soul as poets say, I don't know what I am, but I know what I'm not! I'm not a ghost. I'm not dead spirit. I'm not a dead body, I'm not a person who still stayed alive because he wished to fulfil his dream. I'm not a ghost.
And if you are able to see beyond me, you'll keep finding flashbacks!!!
But before you even step in it, let me tell you again,
I'm not a human nor a ghost, I'm a haunted house.
Full of darkness, mysteries, stories and shadows.
Every love story ended with death in me.
Everyone died, in the end.
But all along, there's something about the haunted house.
I'll tell you stories, if you want to keep listening to me and I'll tell you what happened when you weren't around.
I'll make you hear the screams, and if you don't find them scary,
then know that I'm trying to communicate with you.
My heart guards mysteries that are scary even for me, but they won't haunt you if I cry.
I'll laugh and you'll get scared with the loud sound.
They say, heart is a rebel that's why ribs are cages, but haunted house says heart is a wall that guards things that should be guarded and it guards even those that shouldn't be.
You know it's a MUSEUM.
The heart is a museum of stories and expectations!
Heart is the place where books we read become the parts of our lives, they're no more just books. Heart has lived them even if they didn't happen to us,
you will ask how?
It's a haunted house babe!
