A clear first look at how your association governs
A short, guided set of questions about everyday governance practices. You receive plain-language feedback on what appears to be working, what may be worth a closer look, and practical educational next steps.
1 · Tell us your role
Board member, homeowner, manager, developer, committee volunteer, or professional partner. This shapes how your feedback is framed.
2 · Answer 8 questions
Each question describes one governance practice. “Not sure” is always an option and is never counted against anyone.
3 · Review your feedback
See strengths, areas to explore, and information to find — with a practical next step for each. No score, no grade.
- Board members and officers
- Homeowners and residents
- Community-association managers and management companies
- Developers and declarant representatives
- Committee members and volunteers
- Professional partners who work with associations
This is an educational self-assessment. Your answers are your own view and are not reviewed by Civitas.
It is not a score, certification, audit, legal opinion, compliance determination, or statement of regulatory readiness, and it does not cover any state’s specific legal requirements. For advice about your association’s legal, accounting, tax, or insurance obligations, consult the appropriate licensed professional.
No documents are needed and none are requested.
Your answers stay in this browser while you take the assessment. They are removed when you close this tab or choose “Clear my answers.” The assessment itself does not ask for your name, your association’s name, financial statements, bank or account details, or any association records.
At the end, you may choose to request follow-up from Civitas. Only then are the details you enter sent to Civitas, and your answer summary is included only if you tick that box. Our Privacy Policy applies to anything you send.
A few details first
