How to Send Mail to Someone at North Piedmont CRV: Exact Address and Electronic Options
Sending mail to someone at North Piedmont CRV is straightforward once you know the exact format. Here's the copy-ready mailing address, plus the approved electronic option.
Don't send physical mail to the Lexington street address - it won't get there. CRV mail routes through a central P.O. Box, and the format matters. Write the person's name and their OPUS number on the first line. Below that, add "North Piedmont" and then "Confinement in Response to Violation Center." Send it to P.O. Box 247, Phoenix, Maryland 21131. Missing the OPUS number or leaving off "Confinement in Response to Violation Center" can delay delivery or cause the mail to bounce.
- ✓ Offender Name – Offender OPUS Number
- ✓ North Piedmont
- ✓ Confinement in Response to Violation Center
- ✓ P.O. Box 247
- ✓ Phoenix, MD 21131
Prefer electronic? Text Behind is approved for people housed at CRV centers. You can send messages through the app instead of mailing paper - or use both.
North Piedmont CRV Center sits at 1420 Raleigh Road, Lexington, NC 27292. Use this for directions or in-person visits - not for mailing. Physical mail goes to the P.O. Box address above.
Checklist Before Sending
- ✓ Write the person’s name and OPUS number on the first line
- ✓ Include the CRV center name as “North Piedmont”
- ✓ Add the line “Confinement in Response to Violation Center” before the P.O. Box
- ✓ Send physical mail to P.O. Box 247, Phoenix, MD 21131 (not the Lexington street address)
- ✓ If you prefer electronic delivery, use the Text Behind app
- ✓ Before sending anything beyond a basic message, confirm what items and content are permitted
Note: Use the CRV format exactly - name + OPUS number, “North Piedmont,” and “Confinement in Response to Violation Center” - to help your mail route correctly. Text Behind is accepted for CRV centers, but content rules still apply.
