Program

The Mission

The mission of the Blue Envelope Program is to create awareness for law enforcement that any member of our community may have a condition or disability that could impact their behavior or ability to communicate during a traffic stop or any law enforcement contact.

Purpose

The goal of the Blue Envelope Program is to improve interactions between law enforcement and our community members by instilling calmness and understanding to those who need it the most.

  • We will continually strive to identify organizations within our community with similar goals and objectives and partner with them.
  • We will listen and work closely with our community partners.
  • We will provide our community with information, materials and resources that facilitate effective communication and help law enforcement quickly identify participants.

About Blue Envelope

About the Blue Envelope Program

Ventura County proudly presents the Blue Envelope Program. This compassionate initiative was created to foster greater understanding and safer interactions between law enforcement and community members with cognitive, developmental, or mental health conditions such as autism spectrum disorder, dementia, anxiety, or other conditions that may require special considerations.

This program provides a simple but powerful tool, a Blue Envelope that contains important information to help officers recognize and respectfully respond to the unique needs of the individual during a traffic stop or any other interaction.

Through this collaborative effort, we aim to build trust, awareness, and effective communication-ensuring that every encounter is approached with dignity, respect, and care.
