PBEM has three basic missions: manage Portland's [[PBEM Emergency Operations Center (EOC)|Emergency Operations Center]] (EOC) and keep it ready for activation, help Portland bureaus plan for a disaster through Continuity of Operations Planning, and promote community resilience. Staff responsible for the third mission are organized into the Community Resilience Team (CRT). PBEM volunteers such as NETs are most likely to interact with PBEM, and the City of Portland, through the CRT.
