How does your online community compare, and where should you focus next? 

The 2026 Association Community Benchmark Report analyzes anonymized data from approximately 1,200 associations and nonprofit organizations using Higher Logic communities from June 2025 through May 2026. 

Use the findings to put your performance in context, understand how engagement patterns are evolving, and identify improvements that could create more value for your members.
