Illinois Department of Corrections

I have reviewed the Illinois Dept of Corrections website which has over 600 pages! I have selected pages that will guide you to the most wanted information by families and friends of those in prison. Answers to questions such as:

  • How can I find visitation information?
  • What am I able to send through mail?
  • How can I find contact information for prisons?



Go to the Illinois Department of Corrections page and I will guide you to the information.
