How to Send Letters to Someone at Warren Correctional (OMPC address, effective Jan 30, 2025)

Starting January 30, 2025, personal letters and cards for people at Warren Correctional Institution go to the Ohio Department of Rehabilitation and Correction Mail Processing Center (OMPC) - not directly to Warren.

Address personal mail (letters and cards) to the ODRC Mail Processing Center (OMPC) at this address: Ohio Department of Rehabilitation and Correction Mail Processing Center (OMPC) 884 Coitsville-Hubbard Road Youngstown, Ohio 44505

  • John Doe R111111
  • John Doe A555555

This change covers personal correspondence only - your letters and cards should go to OMPC starting January 30, 2025. Legal mail, business correspondence, and printed materials like magazines, newspapers, and books still go directly to Warren Correctional Institution's physical address.

Heads up: If you send personal letters or cards to Warren's old address, they'll be forwarded to OMPC - but that forwarding adds extra time before your loved one receives them.

Have questions about mail processing or trying to track down a delayed letter? Email OMPC at ODRCMailProcessingCenter@drc.ohio.gov.

You can also call OMPC at 1-330-333-7372.

How to Send Letters to Someone at Warren Correctional (OMPC address, effective Jan 30, 2025)
  1. Write the person’s name and ID on the first line - use the format “Name + ID,” like “John Doe R111111” or “John Doe A555555.”
  2. Put ODRC and OMPC on the next lines - this helps route your letter through the Mail Processing Center.
  3. Copy the OMPC street address exactly - use this full address block:
  4. John Doe R111111
  5. Ohio Department of Rehabilitation and Correction
  6. Mail Processing Center (OMPC)
  7. 884 Coitsville-Hubbard Road
  8. Youngstown, Ohio 44505
  • Update any saved addresses (phone contacts, address books, online autofill) so your letters and cards go to OMPC.
  • If you accidentally use the old Warren address for personal mail, expect extra delay because it will be forwarded.
  • Double-check that you included the incarcerated person’s name followed by their ID (for example: “John Doe R111111” or “John Doe A555555”).
