You can search inmates through their birth date, last name, or DOC number. The inmate search also is “unavailable” from time to time for server maintenance, according to the website.

Sending a Mail

Offenders that are incarcerated in Centralia Correctional Center can receive letters from anyone. However, the mail cannot contain jewelry and/or contraband.
