How to send your letter

  1. 1

    Confirm the person is still at MCI-Framingham

    Inmates are transferred between facilities without notice. Confirm they are still at MCI-Framingham — and double-check the commit number — before you mail anything, using the Massachusetts Department of Correction (DOC)'s official inmate locator.

  2. 2

    Address it exactly

    First line: the inmate's full committed name and commit number. Then MCI-Framingham, 99 Loring Drive, Framingham, MA 01701. Add your full return address.

  3. 3

    Keep the contents allowed

    Plain letter-size paper is safest. Do not enclose cash, stamps, gift cards, or any object other than paper — prohibited items get the whole letter rejected. Check the mail rules above before adding photos.

  4. 4

    Send it without a printer
