An increasing number of police departments in central Maine, the United States are adopting a programme that aims to create safety and awareness for drivers with developmental, mental and behavioural disorders during police interactions.
The Blue Envelope Program (BEP) works to address the unique communication challenges faced by those with autism, dementia, anxiety and other behavioural disorders when interacting with police.
