Encircle Families is sharing an update on Arizona House Bill 2651 (2026), which proposes a voluntary Blue Envelope Program to support clearer, safer communication between law enforcement and individuals on the autism spectrum during traffic stops and other encounters.

This bill has been introduced in the Arizona House. Its next step is referral to a committee so it can receive thoughtful review.

Many individuals and families in our community have expressed how meaningful this legislation could be in helping reduce misunderstandings and stress during law enforcement interactions.

Why HB 2651 matters

  • Supports safer, clearer communication during encounters
  • Participation is voluntary and respectful
  • Informed by lived experience and community input
  • Helps promote dignity, understanding, and public safety for all
