How to Send Mail to Someone at Rappahannock Regional Jail (TextBehind & Photo Rules)
Mail rules at Rappahannock Regional Jail (RRJ) are stricter than most people expect, especially when it comes to photos or anything extra tucked into a letter. Here's how to get your mail delivered without it bouncing back.
Rappahannock Regional Jail utiliza a una empresa externa llamada TextBehind.com para gestionar la correspondencia personal de los internos. No suponga que puede enviar una carta normal directamente a la cárcel. Si la correspondencia personal llega directamente a RRJ cuando no debería, se devuelve. Para cartas y fotos del día a día, use el proceso de TextBehind.
When mailing via U.S. Postal Service, follow RRJ's address format exactly. Put your full name and return address in the upper left corner of the envelope (missing return addresses can get mail rejected). For the main address, use the incarcerated person's legal name and inmate identifier, then send it to the Phoenix, Maryland P.O. Box listed below. Even with TextBehind handling personal correspondence, this is the format RRJ publishes for USPS mail.
Copy-ready address format: Rappahannock Regional Jail, VA, Nombre del interno, Identificador del interno, P.O. Box 247, Phoenix, MD 21131.

Want to help someone write back? Skip the temptation to tuck in supplies. At RRJ, blank envelopes, blank paper, stamps, and pre-paid envelopes are not allowed through the mail. These items have to be purchased through commissary. The workaround: have your loved one buy those items inside, and focus your mail on allowed correspondence and photos that follow the rules above.
One more thing: with RRJ's current mail setup, treat anything you send as something you may not get back. If you have questions about submitting letters or images through TextBehind (or what formats they accept), go straight to TextBehind for current instructions and support. For USPS mail, use the RRJ addressing format exactly so your envelope doesn't get held up or returned.
