Craggy Correctional Center began processing inmates once the original construction was completed and service started in 1989 but may have been expanded or renovated since that time, to accommodate the growing prison population.

If you have a family or loved one that is currently incarcerated at Craggy Correctional Center, the first thing you should do is contact the prison for information on the inmate.

Many correctional facilities let families send books and magazines to an inmate — but almost all of them require the items to be brand-new and shipped directly from the retailer. Anything sent secondhand or repackaged at home is usually rejected at the mailroom. Ordering from a retailer that ships direct is the standard way to get reading material in.
- Must ship new, directly from the retailer — you can't forward it yourself.
- Softcover / paperback only at most facilities (hardcovers are commonly banned).
- No used or third-party marketplace sellers — new copies only.
- Limits on quantity per package and how many packages may be pending.
- Address it to the inmate's full committed name and ID number.
- Use the facility's mailroom address, which can differ from the public address.
