2 min read Based on general OH policies

Legal mail: Legal mail is not affected by the OMPC change and should still be sent directly to Grafton Correctional Facility.

Business correspondence is also excluded from OMPC processing. Send it directly to Grafton Correctional Facility.

Printed materials are their own exempt category. Magazines, newspapers, and books go directly to Grafton Correctional Facility, not through the OMPC.

Sending reading material? You don't need to route it through the OMPC. Magazines, newspapers, and books still go directly to Grafton Correctional Facility. Sending to the right address from the start avoids delays from forwarding.

Have questions about personal mail and the OMPC change? Contact the Ohio Mail Processing Center (OMPC) first. They can clarify where general correspondence should go and help you avoid delays from mail being forwarded.

Contact tip: Legal mail and business correspondence still go directly to Grafton Correctional Facility. For questions about formatting or labeling those items, contact the facility directly.
