In response to the many questions about telephone communications with your loved one locked up in New York state prisons, please note the following: TELEPHONE CALLS The Department’s “Call-Home” program allows inmates to make phone calls as a way to maintain contact with family and friends. The inmate may only call you collect. This means you will have to pay for the call. An inmate is only permitted to call persons on their approved telephone list and may only have up to 15 telephone numbers on their approved list at any time. Phone numbers may only be added or deleted… Read more »
Why is there only evening visit for inmates who are in SHU, which is a problem there are locked up 23 hours a day. those inmate should be able to get morning visits as well.
Hi Judy,
We really could not answer this question. Prisons are very unique environments where much does not make sense.
Is it possible to contact an inmate via email? As I am roughly unable to travel to the facility to visit. I don’t know if I should contact the warden to make contact or not.
Hi MC,
I do not know of any prison that allows internet access to inmates for security reasons in the United States. You can write to the inmate and the inmate can place you on his telephone list.
So sad that inmates are locked up so far away from home and visits for those that are in lock/SHU are only in the evenings? is there a place where we can write or a number we can call maybe our voices will make a difference.
Hi,
You can compkain to the warden or write to your congressman. Prisons are very strange and unique environments where little makes sense.

Hi Valerie,
We recommend contacting your inmate by mail for information or contact his case manager.
