How to send messages, photos, and packages
Green Hill School gives young people copies of incoming non-legal mail rather than the originals. Legal mail is different—it's delivered as originals. Like many Washington facilities, incoming letters are screened and may be scanned; digital copies go to the recipient while originals may be kept or destroyed. To avoid delays, address the envelope with the recipient's full name and any facility-required identifier. Include a complete USPS-style return address with an identifiable first and last name. Sending attorney-related correspondence? Mark it clearly as legal mail so it receives proper handling. Don't put cash, personal checks, or stamps inside the envelope.
Search for a loved one and send messages and photos in minutes.
