CITRUS HEIGHTS, Calif. - TelAve -- Residents across parts of the Sacramento area now have access to the Blue Envelope Program, a voluntary initiative intended to improve communication between first responders and people who may benefit from additional awareness or accommodations. The program was introduced regionally on September 30, 2026, with police leadership from Citrus Heights, Elk Grove, Folsom, Galt, and Sacramento participating in the rollout.

A Blue Envelope can hold identification, emergency contacts, vehicle registration, insurance details, and other information a person may wish to share during an interaction. Available items also include wallet cards, lanyards, seat belt covers, and other branded materials that can signal a potential communication need. The program may be useful for people with autism, dementia, anxiety, or other visible or non-visible disabilities.
