NEW PROCEDURE FOR SENDING INMATE MAIL
In a continued effort to block the introduction of drugs into the facility, the Lackawanna County Prison is changing its procedure for sending mail to inmates. These changes are to maintain the safety of all inmates and staff. Therefore, as of June 1, 2022, general incoming mail will not be accepted at the facility. Any mail received will be returned to sender.

General incoming correspondence includes, but it not limited to, letters, pictures, children’s drawings, etc. It is essentially anything that is NOT legal or privileged correspondence.

GettingOut provides simple and reliable communication between inmates, friends and family, which is rooted in the power of relationships.
GettingOut focuses on inmate self-improvement and creates “community” with, and between its customers — bound by trust and hope. Our aim is to be a supportive and friendly conduit for making connections, fortifying relationships and offering content so inmates get out and stay out.
From a friends and family point of view it is our hope that the more contact you have with your incarcerated friend or loved one, the higher the likelihood they will be “
GettingOut.” From the inmate’s point of view, we hope they see our suite of products as a window to the outside world — a portal that makes them feel they are beyond the walls and “
GettingOut.” What’s more, we’re hopeful that through positive connections on the outside and exposure to our range of self-improvement content, they soon will actually be
GettingOut and rebuilding their lives.
