Constitution and Canons

A constitution is a foundational document that outlines the principles, structure, and authority of an organization or government, serving as its supreme rule. Canons are established standards, rules, or guidelines derived from the constitution that direct behaviors, decisions, and practices within that organization. Together, they create a framework for governance, ensuring consistency, accountability, and adherence to core values. While the constitution sets the broad groundwork, canons provide specific, actionable principles to guide conduct and operations.
