CivicSpace is Drupal modified for a public service / non-profit type
organization. I am not real familiar with CivicSpace so I can't provide any
specifics. It doesn't take very long to load up either of the packages so I
would suggest downloading each from the respective sites, installing them on
a server and working with each for a while to see which fits your needs
better.

I would expect that a half day to a day would be plenty of time install and
work with both packages to determine which you wish use.
