Community social organizations are an emerging force promoting the modernization of grassroots social governance，and an important role for deepening the reform of the social system，stimulating social vitality，and innovating social governance in the new era. The participation of community social organizations in community governance can play the role functions of innovators of community public services，coordinators of grassroots social conflicts，producers of community social capital，and promoters of community economic development. In recent years，although a series of policies promoting the development of community social organizations have been introduced at the institutional level，leading to a vigorous increase in the number of community social organizations. However，from the perspective of legal actors，in reality，community social organizations still face organizational autonomy dilemmas，inter-organizational collaboration dilemmas，and community-level identity dilemmas in the practice process of participating in governance. To respond to the above challenges，promote the high-quality development of community social organizations，and enhance the effectiveness of community social organizations’ participation in community governance，it is necessary to strengthen administrative empowerment of service-oriented supervision and institutional support based on the perspective of governance communities，focus on self-empowerment of industry autonomy and collaborative progress，and highlight digital governance empowerment of intelligent governance platform construction and digital capacity building.
