Inmates do not receive mail on weekends. Mail call at correctional facilities runs Monday through Friday only. InmateAid does process and send letters on Saturdays, so an order placed on Saturday goes into the mail that day. However, the postal system does not deliver to facilities on weekends, and facility mail rooms do not distribute incoming mail on Saturdays or Sundays. A letter mailed on Saturday will arrive at the facility on Monday at the earliest and reach your

Most detention centers, including Avoyelles Parish Detention Center in Marksville, do not allow families to send clothing or personal items directly from outside. Inmates are typically required to purchase approved items through the facility's commissary rather than receive them from home. This policy exists to control what comes into the facility and prevent contraband from entering through packages. If there are specific items your family member needs, the commissary is the place to start. You can support that by

We have a "Response Service" that will work perfectly for your situation. Your inmate can write you (with photos) and mail it to us. We will upload the contents to your account. You retrieve these letters in your Dashboard area under "Letters from Inmates". For international members this is fast and inexpensive - for people who want privacy, InmateAid allows you to connect with your inmate like using a PO Box for communication.

Every letter sent through InmateAid goes out with InmateAid's return address printed on the envelope. Your friend does not need to know the website or look anything up. The return address is right there on the letter they receive, and they simply write back to that address the same way they would reply to any piece of mail. When that reply arrives at InmateAid, we scan it and post it directly to your account. You receive an email notification

The jail in Littlefield, Texas is the Lamb County Sheriff's Jail. Visitation eligibility depends on the individual inmate's status, housing assignment, and any restrictions in place for their specific case. The fastest way to find out if you can visit and how to arrange it is to call the facility directly at 806-385-7900. When you call, have your fiancee's full legal name ready and ask specifically about the visitation process, current visiting hours, and what identification you will need

The Discount Telephone Service is easy to use - we get you a local land line which allows your inmate's call to you become a local call (from your inmate's facility location - area code) instead of long distance. But there are other steps involved besides simply getting a local land line from us. There is always a prison phone company that you'll have to deal with. When you register with them, you'll use the local land line number we

We process thousands of letters with a VERY high rate of success. The phot feature is absolutely the most popular of all our services because so many family members promise to send inmates photos and never have the time to get them posted. We make that easy for you. It usually takes 1-2 business days to get to the facility. We are in a major postal hub and the letters travel pretty rapidly through the system. The only delay

When money is deposited onto an inmate's phone account or commissary, the facility's system typically updates within a few hours. In most cases the inmate can check their account balance directly at a phone kiosk or through the facility's commissary system. They do not need to be notified by anyone on the outside because the balance appears in their account automatically once the deposit processes. The fastest way to let your boyfriend know funds are available, especially if he

Violating an order of protection is treated seriously by the court system, and the outcome on Wednesday depends on several factors: the specific nature of the violation, your husband's prior criminal history, and how the judge who issued the original order views what happened. The judge presiding over Wednesday's hearing is almost certainly the same one who issued the order of protection. That matters because judges who issue protective orders take violations personally. They view it as a direct

We partner with Western Union. You may access their Inmate Funds page through our site. There are instances where Western Union may not have a relationship with a facility - you may have to send a money order through the mail
