You may use the Letter Service or the Postcard Service to send the new number to your inmate. There are other options, but they are not 100% reliable. One, you can try to call the facility and hopefully get a nice person on the phone who would take the information and let the inmate know, you could relay it through another inmate from their loved one and lastly if you are able to visit you can relay it there.
