Facility Info

Northern Nevada Correctional Center follows NDOC procedures for communication and family support. NDOC Secure Mail is transitioning to Corrlinks.com—messages you send are one-way, meaning offenders can't reply by email. Instead, messages get printed and delivered during regular mail distribution. Phone privileges come with restrictions: call length, available hours, and number of calls may be limited. Calls can be monitored or recorded, specific numbers can be blocked, and privileges can be denied temporarily or long-term for disciplinary or gang-related reasons. Family Services can help with general questions and navigating procedures, but they can't make or change decisions about housing, medical care, merit credits, or releases. Use the offender's assigned ID and check the inmate handbook or facility notices for details on mail, visitation, and commissary.
