Prior to starting the Workbook, PBEM relied on Map Your Neighborhood (MYN) as the go-to community resilience curriculum. But MYN had a number of problems: it was (weirdly) copyrighted, it was poorly designed for simple printing (meaning the public had to rely on PBEM to print them copies), several of its concepts were outdated, it was not produced with an equity lens, and it was available only in English. Facilitator guidance did exist as a series of videos, but they were difficult to find because the videos were often taken down from YouTube (possibly because of the copyrighting). | Prior to starting the Workbook, PBEM relied on Map Your Neighborhood (MYN) as the go-to community resilience curriculum.

Everyone on PBEM's Community Resilience Team recognized the need to replace MYN as soon as possible. Regina Ingabire led the effort and began development with a series of focus groups in the second half of 2018. Participants in the focus groups included representatives from [https://portlandvoz.org/ Voz], [https://www.latnet.org/ APANO], and [https://www.latnet.org/ Latino Network]. The focus group produced an initial workbook draft released for review on 11/30/2018. That version of the workbook was roundly rejected by community partners, and the next revision went out on 02/02/2019. About this time, Regina brought graphic design firm Hexad in to begin illustrating workbook concepts and a second draft went out in early March 2019. The final version was completed in Spring 2019, and Hexad began producing versions in multiple languages. | Everyone on PBEM's Community Resilience Team (now Community Preparedness Team) recognized the need to replace MYN as soon as possible.

PBEM kicked off initial print runs of the workbook with an extensive campaign envisioned to bring the publication to multiple communities. Unfortunately, the COVID pandemic in early 2020 handily obliterated that plan, and the Workbook never made a strong debut. | PBEM kicked off initial print runs of the workbook with an extensive campaign envisioned to bring the publication to multiple communities.
