About This Facility

Sam Perdue Juvenile Center is located in the city of Princeton, West Virginia which has a population of 6,432 (as of 2015) residents. This prison has a capacity of 22 inmates, which means this is the maximum amount of beds per facility. Sam Perdue Juvenile Center began processing inmates once the original construction was completed and service started in 2006 but may have been expanded or renovated since that time, to accommodate the growing prison population. There is an average of 18 inmates currently serving time at this facility. Prisoners are housed in separate areas depending on the crimes they committed, their current risk assessment, and their behavior. This facility is currently under the supervision of Gary Patton and houses male offenders.

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

Send Books & Magazines

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.

Typical requirements (confirm with Sam Perdue Juvenile Center first):
  • 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.
Mailing address on file for this facility:
843 Shelter Road Princeton, WV 24740
Always include the inmate's full name and ID, and confirm whether books go to a separate mailroom address.
Before you order: book policies vary by facility and change often, and a growing number of jails accept no physical books at all (reading is provided through electronic tablets instead). Confirm Sam Perdue Juvenile Center's current policy by calling 304-425-9721 so your package isn't returned.
