FAQ
Inmates may receive up to seven paperback books or publications a day, which must be sent via the United States Postal Service (USPS), UPS, or FedEx. A USPS delivery scan may indicate a book has been delivered to the post office, which does not necessarily mean it has arrived at the ACJ.
Gather the inmate's name, registration number, and address, then mail your letter with adequate postage. Be mindful of any content restrictions. How do I write someone in prison? To ensure it's accepted, use plain paper, address it with the inmate's ID and facility address, and avoid prohibited items.
DOC security staff will conduct thorough security screenings of all incoming publications. After publications clear the SPC, they will be sent to the mailroom at the prison where the inmate is located. From there, books and magazines will be delivered to inmates.
Your correspondence may be opened by the prison. Don't say anything that could cause repercussions for your correspondent, such as disparaging remarks about prison officials. Sexual or violent content is likely to prevent your letter from being delivered.
On the first line, write the inmate's name and booking number. On the second line, write the physical address of the jail, or the P.O. box where the jail accepts inmate mail. On the third line, write the city, state, and zip code.
All mail received by prisons is recorded, opened and examined.
Writing a Letter to Someone in Jail Visit the jail website. Look up the inmate's booking number. Address the envelope. Include your name and return address. Make sure not to send confidential information. Avoid sending prohibited items. Mail your envelope. Send an email.
What to write Introduce yourself — tell them your name, general location, and how you found out about them. Share things about yourself and the outside world. Ask questions to get to know them — such as how they're doing, plans they have for the future, and what their interests are.
Write the "attention" line: Begin this line with either the abbreviation "ATTN," or the full word "Attention." Then, after a colon, write the person's name. You can either write their full name, or their professional title if you're certain of their preferred gender pronouns.
