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.

LARC and Lexington Correctional Center (LCC) form a prison complex in Lexington, Oklahoma. LARC serves as the state's intake facility for male inmates, with a capacity of 1,462 individuals, while LCC, a medium-security facility with a minimum yard, accommodates 870 inmates for long-term incarceration.

All male prisoners sentenced in Oklahoma are initially processed at Lexington Assessment & Reception Center. Here, ODOC staff assess inmates, review their sentencing documents, and determine their placement in state facilities based on their risk and needs assessments.

The complex houses a 24-7 infirmary providing intensive medical care. LCC features a specialized dialysis unit, the state's only one, capable of serving 12 inmates per shift. Staffed with medical professionals, including CCH Techs, registered nurses, and an on-site nephrologist, the unit operates on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, ensuring inmates receive necessary care.

Established in 1971 and 1977, respectively, LCC and LARC offer various job opportunities for medium and minimum-security offenders. Minimum-security inmates participate in the Prisoner Public Work Program, engaging in work assignments with agencies such as the City of Noble, the City of Lexington, and others. Additionally, LARC hosts the Lexington Career Tech Skills Center, providing vocational training for medium-security yard students. Notably, the cabinet-making apprenticeship program offers comprehensive training in woodwork and design, emphasizing safety in all aspects of the trade.

A unique program at LCC, Friends for Folks, partnered with Second Chance Animal Rescue, aids long-term offenders by involving them in dog training. Inmates train dogs donated to local nursing homes as companion animals, offering both rehabilitation and service to the community.

Level 2 - Two hours per week, Saturdays and Sundays
Level 3 - Four hours per week starting at 11 a.m. Saturdays or Sundays
