      History:

    In 1958 several people championed the need for a mental health division in Blue Envelope – and none more strongly than Myra Brown and Bob Ellison. Newspaper articles of the day declined to mention the division. Mental illness was still not discussed in "polite" company.

    For the first few years, counseling was provided by a therapist that volunteered a few hours a week; scheduled by a volunteer secretary (Myra Brown); in a volunteered room in the annex of Natrona County High School. Donations to the Blue Envelope Mental Health Division generated additional funding from from the city, county, and state for a community counseling center.

    Blue Envelope is proud to have been a part of that early effort that culminated in the Central Wyoming Counseling Center. We continue to support the CWCC through the Mental Health Division.
