The Insiders' Guides are 4-page, 8.5 x 11 inch publications that use illustration and straightforward language to do two things:

• support the efforts of practitioners and other activists to make mainstream some concepts and tools critical to community revitalization.
• foster a debate about effective strategies for community education and engagement in the development process.

CCE staff developed the theme, text, and layout of each in consultation with a group of practitioners. They then took the finished "IG" to press in the pages of the quarterly magazine Making Waves.
