Accepting collect calls can be expensive, sometimes exceeding $10 per call. Click here for discounts on inmate calls, especially if the communication with your inmate is frequent. It's important to remember that all phone calls are recorded, and discussing sensitive legal matters over these lines is discouraged.
While incarcerated, reading is often the best use of time. Please note that books and magazines, puzzles, and word searches ordered for inmates must come directly from the publisher. This policy ensures that the items are new, untampered, and comply with the facility's regulations. Prisons and jails enforce this rule to prevent the introduction of contraband or prohibited materials. By restricting orders to publishers, the facility can better maintain security and control over the content entering the institution. Any books or magazines not received directly from the publisher will be rejected and not delivered to the inmate. You may, however, send letters and selfies to inmates with this easy-to-use app, packages starting at only $8.00.
The ADCRR-Phoenix prison complex stands out within the department due to its unique setup. Four of its units are located on the grounds of the Arizona State Hospital and leased through the Department of Health Services. These units along with Baker include the Alhambra Unit, Aspen Unit, and Flamenco Unit catering to specific inmate populations and mental health needs.
With an inmate capacity of approximately 1,042 spread across seven housing units at various security levels, ADCRR-Phoenix employs a score classification system to assess inmates' appropriate custody and security level placement, with scores ranging from 1 to 5 indicating the level of risk or need.
ADCRR-Phoenix operates as a modern, medium to high-security prison, encompassing three major functional areas: a reception center for incoming inmates, licensed mental health beds, and transitional care units for mental health inmates. Skilled inmates from the general population are selected to perform maintenance tasks, work in the facility's kitchen, and serve in yard and cleaning crews.
The Reception Center at Phoenix serves as the initial processing point for adult male inmates entering the Department from various counties, excluding Death Row and inmates serving life sentences. Here, inmates undergo medical and psychiatric screenings, initial classification, and statewide transportation.
The Baker Ward houses an inpatient care unit with a medical infirmary, while Flamenco serves as a licensed in-patient mental health facility for inmates across custody levels, providing group and individual therapy sessions.
Programs at ASPC-Phoenix include work crews assigned to maintenance and other tasks within Alhambra and Aspen units. Education programs, including mandatory literacy, special education, GED, and high school diploma programs, are offered through the Phoenix Success Academy. Inmates are also encouraged to pursue associate degrees, with several successful graduates in the past.
Treatment and self-improvement programs at Flamenco and Aspen units include weekly psychoeducation groups, individual therapy sessions, art therapy, book clubs, healthy peer relationship groups, self-esteem and anger management sessions, and a Recovery Support Specialist program aimed at preparing inmates for successful reintegration into society upon release.
ADCRR Phoenix-Baker maintains a database of current inmates and their locations within the system. To locate an inmate, begin by using the DOC locator tool, which requires entering the first three letters of the inmate's first and last name, allowing for variations in spelling.
If unable to locate the desired information through free resources, users may opt to use the Arrest Record Search, which requires payment. While this option incurs a small fee, it provides access to the most up-to-date data available.
