The Huerfano Chapter area is approximately 90 square miles in the most northeastern part of the Navajo Nation. The chapter covers the communities of Carson, Otis, Bisti, Adobe, Gallegos, Blanco, and Jacquez. It is part of the Eastern Navajo Agency in a area commonly known as the Checkerboard due to a mixture of land ownership which include Navajo Trust, Allotted, State, and Bureau of Land Management Lands. Huerfano Chapter has the largest land base in Eastern Agency.
The chapter was certified in 1956 and the first chapter house built in 1957. The newest chapter house was built in 1990.
The Dzilthnaodithle Health Center is situated near the community school at "DZ", short for the community name which is hard for non-Navajo tongue to pronounce. The IHS facility is open to patients on a daily basis Monday through Friday.
