Navajo Nation health officials are seeking a partnership with bordertown bar and alcohol establishments in order to combat what is said to be a growing sexually transmitted disease problem.

The officials want to work with the businesses to educate people about the links between alcohol and STDs. The Navajo Division of Health mailed a letter seeking support for the effort.
