It is approximately 23 miles southwest of Chinle, Arizona, and 22 miles east of Pinon, Arizona, situated between the Blue Gap and Chinle Chapters. The tselani community once had its own chapter. In 1949, the Tselani, Cottonwood, and Black Mountain communities merged to form a single chapter. The Tselani/Cottonwood Chapter was certified by the Navajo Tribal Council on March 7, 1958. It is funded mainly by the Navajo Nation and federal sources, including the Bureau of Indian Affairs and the Indian Health Services. The chapter currently serves about 2,700 members, according to the 2000 Census.
