In this case, civil society interacts with the governmental sphere through legal governance (Option C) as community organizing and lobbying efforts successfully lead to changes in police training requirements, addressing a public concern and contributing to the common good.

In this case, the community organizing and lobbying efforts demonstrate civil society engaging with the governmental sphere to address a societal issue—police shootings involving minorities. The change in training requirements for new police officers, facilitated through legal processes, contributes to the public good by aiming to reduce incidents and improve policing practices, showcasing the interaction between civil society and the governmental sphere through legal governance.

The correct answer therefore will be: C. Civil society institutions interact with the governmental sphere through legal governance.
