We believe every human being has the right to be a contributing member of their community, to be free from abuse, to participate in activities they enjoy, and above all, to be treated with dignity and respect. It's a work in progress when it comes to the justice system, but we will never stop advocating for you and driving rehabilitative reforms ♥️ ⚖️

The O’Fallon Police Department is taking part in the Blue Envelope Program through the National Public Safety Alliance for Individuals with Disabilities (NPS-AID).

The envelopes are designed to help foster understanding and communication between drivers on the Autism spectrum and our officers.

You can pick one up at our Records Department, located inside the O’Fallon Police Department, during regular business hours.

The Productive Living Board of St. Louis County (PLB), Developmental Disabilities Resource Board (DDRB), and the St. Louis Office for Developmental Disability Resources (DDR) ensure funding for a spectrum of high-quality services and choices for residents who have a developmental disability. Through tax dollars, these funding boards work diligently to create opportunities for individuals with a developmental disability to thrive in the home, community, and employment settings of their choosing in St. Louis County, St. Charles County, and the City of St. Louis.

Options for Justice is a proud recipient of these funding opportunities. We value our partnerships with these funding boards as we close a very successful fiscal year ‘26 and move into the new fiscal year ’27. Through these partnerships, we serve individuals who have a developmental disability and become entangled in the justice system. With this support, individuals have a greater degree of success navigating the system and becoming contributing members of their community.

Individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) are seven times more likely to have some sort of encounter with the criminal justice system. At OFJ, we remain committed to mitigating this risk by providing specialized training and education on interactions involving developmental and intellectual disabilities within the justice system, while offering support to those navigating this complex process.
