You can download the Inmate Trust Fund Remitter Form (PDF) from the Connecticut Department of Correction's forms page. This is the official document DOC provides for trust fund deposits - grab it before doing anything else.

Want to help with basics like personal items? Here's how the system works: Connecticut DOC does not allow family or friends to send in or drop off clothing packages - the agency provides all clothing. For anything beyond what the facility issues, the person needs to buy it through commissary. That's why keeping their account funded matters.

Note: Approved CDs are available through commissary. Outside CDs or tapes must be educational or religious, not available through commissary, and ordered from a commercial distributor that ships them directly.
