It is our hope to become strong in the work of Diné Language and Cultural preservation and revitalization.
Before 2011, the Diné Language Teachers Association had finances handled by a partnering institution. In February 2001, the current group started the Diné Language Teachers Association as a non-profit handling all of its own affairs.
