For good and valuable consideration, the sufficiency and receipt of which are
hereby acknowledged, the undersigned hereby constitutes and appoints each of
Mark C. Oldenberg and Rebecca L. Johnson, and any of their substitutes, signing
singly, the undersigned's true and lawful attorney-in-fact to:

(1) execute for and on behalf of the undersigned (in accordance with Section
16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules
thereunder (the "Exchange Act")), any and all Forms 3, 4 and/or 5, and any
amendments thereto, that are necessary or advisable to report the undersigned's
transactions in and holdings of the equity securities of Citizens Community
Bancorp, Inc., a Maryland corporation (the "Company"), for purposes of
compliance with section 16(a) of the Exchange Act, (collectively, "Documents");

(2) do and perform any and all acts for and on behalf of the undersigned that
may be necessary or desirable to complete and execute any such Documents and
timely file such Documents with the United States Securities and Exchange
Commission and any stock exchange or similar authority; and

(3) take any other action of any type whatsoever in connection with the
foregoing which, in the opinion of such attorney-in-fact, may be of benefit to,
in the best interest of, or legally required by, the undersigned, it being
understood that the documents executed by such attorney-in-fact on behalf of the
undersigned pursuant to this Power of Attorney shall be in such form and shall
contain such terms and conditions as such attorney-in-fact may approve in such
attorney-in-fact's discretion.

The undersigned hereby grants to each such attorney-in-fact full power and
authority to do and perform any and every act and thing whatsoever requisite,
necessary or proper to be done in the exercise of any of the rights and powers
herein granted, as fully to all intents and purposes as the undersigned might or
could do if personally present, with full power of substitution or revocation,
hereby ratifying and confirming all that each such attorney-in-fact (or such
attorney-in-fact's substitute or substitutes) shall lawfully do or cause to be
done by virtue of this power of attorney and the rights and powers herein
granted. The undersigned acknowledges that each attorney-in-fact, in serving in
such capacity at the request of the undersigned, is not assuming, nor is such
attorney-in-fact's substitute or substitutes or the Company assuming, any of the
undersigned's responsibilities to comply with the Exchange Act. The undersigned
agrees to defend and hold harmless each attorney-in-fact (and such
attorney-in-fact's substitute or substitutes) from and against any and all loss,
damage or liability that such attorney-in-fact may sustain as a result of any
action taken in good faith hereunder.

This Power of Attorney shall remain in full force and effect until the
undersigned is no longer required to file Documents with respect to the
undersigned's holdings of and transactions in securities issued by the Company,
unless replaced by a subsequent executed power of attorney covering the matters
contemplated hereby or earlier revoked by the undersigned in a signed writing
delivered to each of the foregoing attorneys-in-fact.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned has caused this Power of Attorney to be
executed as of this 20th day of November 2014.
