This handbook has been compiled to assist a Tribal Nation in reviewing and revising its constitution (and bylaws) or in drafting its first constitution.
For each article, the handbook presents information and ideas for a Tribe to consider so it can make informed decisions. Based upon such considerations, a Tribe can identify existing sections of its constitution (and bylaws) needing revision and/or consider a suggested provision in its new constitution, proceed to revise old sections or tailor the language in its new constitution, and coordinate them into a complete document for public comment by its Tribal members.
It also gives examples for each article from a variety of Tribal constitutions to present a comprehensive view of possibilities, to present information on Tribal government, to summarize information, and to present information generally on Tribal constitutions.
