This is a notice of intent to sole source for professional radio broadcasting services to ensure the timely and effective dissemination of essential public health messages to remote and rural communities within the Navajo Nation. Access to reliable internet and other digital platforms is inconsistent in this region, making radio a critical and trusted medium. These services are vital for increasing awareness of priority health conditions, preventive measures, and available health resources.
