Overview
Before you plan a visit or send mail, use the Connecticut Department of Correction Inmate Search to confirm someone's current facility and custody status. Search results show the person's name, inmate number, and location—details you'll need for everything else. When sending letters or packages, include the inmate's full name and inmate number so items get routed correctly. Adding money? Mail money orders to the Inmate Trust Fund P.O. Box in Wethersfield with remitter information, plus the inmate's name and ID clearly noted. For in-person or video visits, check whether you need to be on the approved visitor list and whether special rules apply for minors.
