Benefits of Writing an Inmate

Men and women who are incarcerated can benefit enormously from becoming pen pals with people on the outside. Many inmates have become out of sight, out of mind to their family and friends, offering friendship can be a great way to keep their spirits up and let them know they are not alone. Receiving letters also helps to eliminate the monotony that goes along with being incarcerated and helps time pass more quickly.

Inmates who establish and maintain positive relationships with people outside of prison are less likely to return to prison in the future, also improving the inmates chances of successfully reintegrating into society when released. Becoming prison pen pals is an excellent way to do that. It's amazing how a small amount of communication with the outside world can improve a prisoner's outlook on life. Your letters are sure to remind them that they truly deserve a second chance.

Male and female prisoners aren't the only ones who benefit from participating with Meet-an-Inmate.com. As a pen pal, you can offer encouragement and motivation for an inmate to make positive changes in his or her life. This can be very rewarding. What greater gift could you give someone than hope?

Sometimes in this busy world, it is nice to find someone who truly cares what you have to say. You may start looking forward to receiving the letters just as much as the inmate does. Finally, locating and communicating with a prison pen pal can benefit society as well. Your efforts could very well be the difference between someone going out and changing their life, or ending up back in prison.

Additional Information

All institutions have different guidelines as to what an inmate may receive or send through the mail. Never send anything laminated (polaroid photos, etc.), stickers, or money - until you know the rules of a particular institution. For more information, including possible scams, see our F.A.Q. page.

The inmates listed are convicted felons and caution should be used. Be understanding without being gullible. We recommend and promote using this site to find penpals for friendships, and not romantic relationships. We would advise not to write an inmate who ask for money.

Many states you can look up crimes and additional information on the inmates by going to http://meet-an-inmate.com/locator/index.html
