Send Inmate Mail

Please explain the InmateAid postcard service

If he was just transferred from Waco to Hutchin Unit and Waco doesn't have this service how will he know he has email. Or is it printed as postcard and given to the inmate?

Our postcard service is not an email.

Our postcard service is not an email. This is a postcard printed on both sides of the card, one side is your message, the other side are your pictures (up to four). We mail them into the prison and they are handed out by the staff when they normally give mail to inmates.
