此讲座将用中文进行。
我们业主大部分时间生活在小区，且房产是我们许多人家中占比很大的家庭财产。故如何进行小区自治，维护、保护和管理好小区，从而使我们的生活安全、舒适，财产保值、增值，是每一个生活在小区的业主需要了解和参与的事务（business）。
讲座将从我们在小区里的权益边界和对应的职责入手，对比美国住宅小区的自治模式，简介小区维护和管理方式；自治组织的组成、法律地位、工作职责、工作方式、支持体系、遵循规则、费用归集和冲突解决。
It may sound strange to some of you, but many of us actually spend most of our time at home. In addition, our property, regardless whether it was purchased for self-use or for investment, makes up a significant portion of our families' investment portfolio.
Therefore, the question of how to self-govern our community, provide appropriate maintenance, security and management in order to ensure a safe, comfortable life-style while increasing the value of our properties, is very important to everyone. This is a responsibility that required understanding and participation from every member of the community.
This lecture begins by explaining the rights within the community and their corresponding responsibility. By comparing the self-governing patterns between communities in China and those in the U.S.. The presenter will also discuss different ways of community management. She will talk about how to form self-governing entities, their legal status and duties, systems that support them, their budgets of operation, and how they resolve conflicts.
