The Blue Envelope also has guidance for officers and the driver that aims to streamline communication and reduce misunderstandings, the release says.
This system is designed to reduce stress and confusion for drivers with autism spectrum disorder and allow officers to recognize they may need to adjust their communication style, according to the press release.
Starting on April 3, community members can find Blue Envelopes in the Kettering Police Department lobby and the front desk at the Kettering Government Center.
