Mohawk Correctional Facility

Mohawk Correctional Facility holds visits on weekends from 8:30 AM to 3:30 PM. You must arrive by 2:30 PM to be admitted. Visiting weekends rotate based on the incarcerated person's DIN last digit—odd numbers (1,3,5,7,9) one weekend, even numbers (0,2,4,6,8) the next, according to the posted calendar. Housing status affects what's allowed: people in SHU get one non-legal visit within a seven-day period during regular hours, while RMU inmates receive one visit on alternating Saturdays or Sundays. You can visit as many times per day as you'd like, with up to three visitors plus one child under five (who must sit on an adult's lap) per visit. If the visiting room gets crowded, staff may ask visitors to end early voluntarily. When that's not enough, visits are ended after three hours using a first-in, first-out rule, starting with local visitors within 100 miles.

Start with Mohawk Correctional Facility's official page or the statewide DOCCS phone directory to find main phone numbers, specific office contacts (records, visitation, victim services), and any "Contact Us" forms. Before reaching out, figure out what you need—general information, visitation help, records/FOIL, victim services, or emergency assistance—so your message gets to the right place faster. When you call or write, include your full name, a phone number or email for a reply, a clear description of your request, and any booking or report numbers you have. For records requests, include any required signed authorizations. If you use the DOCCS website email form, your email address and message content are collected for response or forwarding, and the site logs technical visit data (IP address, pages accessed, etc.). For immediate emergencies, call 911. For facility safety or PREA concerns, use the agency's confidential tip lines or reporting channels.

Mohawk Correctional Facility's public information lives on the New York State DOCCS website. The site automatically collects technical details about your visit: IP address, browser/operating system, date and time, pages accessed, referring and exit sites, and any downloaded forms. DOCCS uses session cookies (deleted when you close your browser) and only uses persistent cookies with your permission. If you email DOCCS through the website, your email address and message contents are collected so staff can respond or forward your message. DOCCS may also collect or disclose personal information without consent in specific situations—statutory duties, court orders, identity validation, or de-identified statistics. Information you submit is retained under New York State Arts & Cultural Affairs Law and records schedules. Check the Mohawk page and DOCCS visitor info for facility-specific processes and schedules.
