The concept behind the Navajo Way derived from the traditional concept of k’e which is the basis of the Navajo cultural and social systems. Navajo families and communities come together to support and care for each other during a time of need, especially during ceremonies. Each person played a vital role in the planning, implementation, and support of ceremonies or family gatherings, which affirmed continued support for one another.
