Sutter County Sheriff’s Office Launches Blue Envelope Program to Support Inclusive Communication
SUTTER COUNTY, CA –– “The Sutter County Sheriff’s Office is proud to stand with other California communities in offering the Blue Envelope Program. The Program is designed to promote inclusivity and serve as an enhanced communication awareness tool between law enforcement and community members diagnosed with a condition or disability such as autism spectrum disorder, dementia, anxiety, or other conditions that might require additional accommodation or awareness during a law enforcement interaction.
Adopted by numerous law enforcement agencies across the county, the Blue Envelope Program is part of our continued commitment to fostering trust and understanding for the people we serve.
How the Program Works:
The Blue Envelope Program works by allowing an individual to readily display the Blue Envelope logo or present a Blue Envelope upon contact with law enforcement, or other community service personnel. The Blue Envelope can contain the individual’s identification, contact information, or pertinent vehicle operating documents, such as, the vehicle registration and proof of insurance. The Blue Envelope Program does not have a registry component; therefore, the program is voluntary and self-implemented.
Outreach Materials:
The following items are available for free at the Sutter County Sheriff’s Office and the Live Oak Substation.
Blue Envelope
Lanyards
Seatbelt Covers
Button Pins
Key Chains
Wristbands
Stickers”
