The inmates housed at Edgecombe Treatment located at 611 Edgecombe Ave in New York, NY are placed according to their custody level (determined by a number of factors including the past criminal history and the length of their sentence). There are ample educational and vocational training programs for all inmates, especially ones that show a willingness to learn new things that will prepare them for a better life when they are released. The mission is to promote and prepare the offender to leave in better shape than when they arrived, giving them the best chance to never come back and thus lower the state's recidivism rate.

Edgecombe Residential Treatment Facility, sometimes called Edgecombe Correctional Facility, is located in New York County NY. Edgecombe Residential Treatment (Correctional) Facility is classified as a minimum-security correctional facility used as a:

(1) work release facility;
(2) residential treatment facility; and
(3) general confinement facility.

The Edgecombe Specialized Chemical Dependence Services program provides intensive services to parole detainees housed at Edgecombe Residential Treatment Facility, in Manhattan, for a period of 10-45 days, preparing them for a return to their communities, and engagement in community-based addiction treatment. The facility holds 110 parolees, each voluntarily detained, with the overall service capacity of approximately 1,200 parolees annually.

The goal of the Edgecombe Residential Treatment Facility is to positively redirect the behavior of a parolee at risk of being re-incarcerated due to non-compliance with conditions of parole. Utilizing a combination of comprehensive treatment services and intensive parole supervision, the Edgecombe team engages the parolees in developing and implementing a community-based parole stabilization plan. Services are provided to the participants to ensure that continuity of care is consistent with treatment and continuing care plans. DOCCS provides security, maintenance, food services, and medical services to parolees housed at Edgecombe Residential Treatment Facility. DOCCS also provides services to meet the religious and spiritual needs of the parolees.

Treatment of parolees is a complex issue that must take into account a variety of unique issues related to their lives, including:

  • criminal thinking;
  • impulsive behavior;
  • poor decision-making skills;
  • criminal behavior;
  • poor critical thinking skills; and
  • (often) a long history of alcohol/substance abuse.

The Edgecombe Specialized Chemical Dependence Services program enables the parolees to “step back” from the stressors in their lives, reassess their lifestyle, and develop plans for successful community reintegration. The programmatic framework includes:

  • comprehensive evaluation of all relevant domains (e.g., alcohol/substance use, employability, family relationships, housing, mental health);
  • individualized treatment plans;
  • structured therapeutic activities;
  • individualized community reintegration plans; and
  • referrals to community-based services.

In addressing the unique needs of parolees, the treatment environment must encourage parolees to address issues of addiction and criminal lifestyle and to develop new skills and strategies for successful and productive community living.

Edgecombe Correctional Facility does not allow inmates to receive packages or books/magazines.

The only item you can send to an inmate is money for their commissary account.

Covid Visitation Information

Unfortunately, as a result of the significant increase in COVID-19 infections among the incarcerated population, staff and the surrounding communities, visitation will be temporarily suspended statewide, effective December 30, 2020. Non-contact legal visits will be allowed to continue under previously announced protocols.

The Department continues to work with our phone and tablet vendor as previously announced to ensure continued access to some free calls and secure messages each week. The Department will also make (5) free stamps available to the population for general correspondence.

We will continue to monitor the infection rates and resume visitation as soon as practical. We recognize that visitation is a vital part of family reunification and therefore, we will resume it when safe to do so.

The New York State Department of Corrections and Community Supervision (DOCCS) encourages visits by family and friends, which can be a positive influence during the time a person spends in prison and after their release. Research shows that incarcerated individuals who receive regular visits adjust much better once they are released from prison when the privilege is used to maintain positive relationships.

DOCCS wants the visiting experience to be family-friendly and positive. The Department has Visitor Hospitality Centers that provide shelter and respite for visiting families and friends prior to entering the facility. Restrooms, a baby changing station, lockers for storing personal belongings, and information concerning rules and regulations pertaining to visitation, including packages for inmates, are available.

To ensure the safety of family, friends who are visiting, as well as our facilities staff and the incarcerated population, visits are subject to DOCCS rules. To help address questions you may have about visitations, DOCCS has prepared a variety of resources.
