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.
Taconic CF, situated in Westchester County, is a medium-security prison exclusively for female inmates. Inmates have the opportunity to earn an adult basic education and GED while incarcerated.

Taconic Correctional Facility provides educational opportunities for inmates, including college courses offered by local colleges for credit. Vocational training programs in cosmetology, business, painting, and decorating are also available. In addition, the facility offers support services such as Alcoholics Anonymous meetings, substance abuse treatment, and a Female Trauma Recovery program to address inmates' diverse needs.
Taconic CF 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.
