Bradford County Facility, Pa

Bradford County Facility follows Pennsylvania DOC practices for visitation. Both in-person and video visits are scheduled through the Inmate Visitation System (IVS) using a Keystone login. Visits are a privilege—availability, visit types, and rules vary by housing unit and custody level. To get approved, the incarcerated person needs to add you to their authorized visitors list first. Then you'll create and verify your own IVS account. For video visits, use the IVS link and join close to your scheduled start time. Sessions run back-to-back, so arriving late can cost you the slot. Bring a current government-issued photo ID showing your date of birth, and make sure the address you use when registering matches what's on your ID.

Looking for someone connected to Bradford County Facility? Start by picking the right tool. Federal inmates appear in the Bureau of Prisons (BOP) locator, while state or local detainees show up through Pennsylvania DOC resources or county search tools. VINE can send custody alerts for recent arrests or status changes. Have clear identifiers ready—full legal name, date of birth, any known aliases, and an inmate or booking number if you have it. This helps narrow results and avoid false matches. If you see a status like "Released" or "Not in BOP Custody," the person may have been transferred, placed on supervised release, or moved to a different agency's custody. Check other state and local systems to be sure. Listings can lag or be incomplete, so always confirm the current location before making plans.

Once you submit a YAP scholarship application, Bradford County Facility emails the applicant an award letter along with a YAP General Release and a fillable Endowment Fund Scholarship Information Request form. You can sign the YAP General Release electronically, then email both documents back to Marcia Goss. Questions about the Endowment Fund scholarship? Reach out to Patty Rosati, Shannon Grove, or Marcia Goss using the facility's listed contacts. Have the applicant's full name and date of birth ready when you call or email—it keeps things moving. Send completed forms to the facility's published contact email rather than through third-party vendor portals, unless the facility specifically directs you otherwise.

YAP clients, former clients, and current primary caregivers can apply for the YAP Endowment Scholarship to help with post-secondary education or training. Awards may cover tuition, required books and supplies, or a laptop. Requesting a laptop? You'll need proof of enrollment (like a class schedule). YAP's IT Department purchases laptops and sends them to your local program for delivery. To apply, use the current form at yapinc.org/endowment. Include the required essay answering all four application questions and clearly indicate which type of scholarship you're requesting. Email your application, essay, and any nomination letters (optional but helpful) to Endowmentapp@yapinc.org. You can apply once per calendar year.
