Unlike other state facilities, the High Security Center currently does not have their database full of inmates open to the public.

What does this mean for you trying to search for an offender?

Whether you are trying to locate or find more information about an inmate, you will need to contact the High Security Center directly at the number provided. When contacting the High Security Center, you will need to at least have the inmates full name and their date of birth handy.

Sending a Mail/Care Package

Nationwide Inmate Records Online Check

Jail records, court & arrest records, mugshots and even judicial reports.

Mail is a great way to keep in contact with an offender while they are in the High Security Center.

The offender is permitted to send and receive letters. All letters will be checked for contraband. If you do not follow the strict guidelines that the High Security Center sets forth, your mail will not make it to the inmate it is addressed to and you may lose mail rights.

Sending Money

Just like nearly every other state facility, the High Security Center uses JPay.

JPay is a great service that allows the inmate to receive their money immediately when a family or friend deposits it in their account. This will allow the inmate to use their money right when they get it rather than having to wait days before it is touchable.

Phone calls

You will not be permitted to contact an offender by via telephone nor will you be permitted to leave them a message. You will be required to wait for an offender to contact you via telephone.

Inmates will be permitted to use the phone. Typically, phones will be available during the daytime hours if the High Security Center is not under a lockdown.

Calls will only be permitted to be 15-minutes in length.

Visitation

Visitors are more than welcome to visit an inmate at the High Security Center during the select days.

However, before you can visit an inmate, you will be required to fill out the Rhode Island Inmate Visitors Application. This application will need to be filled out, submitted, and approved, prior to you being permitted to come in and visit with an inmate.

Visits will be held on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays between the hours of 9:30 am to 1:30 pm and 2:30 pm to 6:30 pm.
