How do I send money to my daughter.
Hi Joan,
You can only send money by money order or cashiers check. The inmate’s name, ID Number, and address must appear on the money order or cashiers check.
Good evening, can you tell me the phone number for the phone company provider so that my kids mother can call the kids
Hi Al,
I went through the telephone section on the prison’s web site and could not find the name of the company. It is probably Securus.I would recommend contacting the prison to confirm which telephone company is used by the New york state system. You should also look into using one of the cheap jail phone companies to keep your expenses down. You can google cheap prison calls to find information.
