How to send messages, photos, and packages
Green Bay Corrections Institution routes personal mail through a third-party processor. Send letters to TextBehind at P.O. Box 189, Phoenix, MD 21131. Include your return name and address, plus the resident's full legal name and DOC number on the envelope. TextBehind scans incoming personal mail, and the originals are shredded by a certified third party 30 days after scanning. Clear, complete addressing helps avoid delays. Legal and medical correspondence typically bypasses third-party scanning and follows different procedures—check the facility's legal-mail instructions for those items.
