Sending Emergency Messages to Offenders

To send an emergency message related to a critical illness, injury or death experienced by members of the offender’s immediate family:

Call the facility and ask for the unit supervisor or if you feel more comfortable with the prison chaplain.  Prison chaplains are available during normal business hours.

The message must be verified by staff before it is passed on to the offender. Do not save this information for visiting day,  let the facility know ahead of time so services and support can be put in place for the offender.
