Send Money at Alfred D. Hughes Unit

How to deposit funds, commissary, and payment options

Overview

Money for an Alfred D. Hughes Unit inmate goes into their Inmate Trust Fund. Only people on the inmate's Approved Visitor List or Inmate Telephone List can make deposits (effective September 1, 2020). Don't mail trust fund deposits—or inmate personal mail—to the unit itself. Deposits sent to the facility won't be processed. Cash and personal checks aren't accepted and will be returned. Keep timing in mind: single deposits of $500 or more, along with certain checks, may be held for 14 days before funds become available. Trust Fund staff can confirm whether a deposit was received, but they won't share account activity or balance details with anyone except the inmate. Use approved deposit channels and confirm vendor and processing rules before sending funds.
