A maximum security prison at Stormville in Dutchess County, about seventy miles north of New York City. Green Haven takes any security classification, serves as an intake and in-transit point, and is built flat, which DOCCS gives as the reason it can house people who use wheelchairs.

Green Haven takes intake and moves people through, so a result here may be temporary.

View ArticleA deposit slip for the free route, or $1.75 to $4.75 to skip the wait.
View ArticleCalls have been free statewide since August 2025, on a list managed from inside.
View ArticleNo separate mail box here, whatever third-party sites print. Route 216 takes letters.
View ArticleOne statewide lookup keyed on the DIN covers every New York prison. What is particular here is movement: Green Haven is both an intake facility for certain counties and a place that sends, receives and temporarily houses people in transit. A result showing Green Haven may be a stop on the way somewhere rather than a placement.

See the full breakdownJPay handles deposits statewide. A money order to the Miami lockbox is free but needs a deposit slip from the facility and caps at $999.99. Online and phone deposits post faster for $1.75 to $4.75, MoneyGram receive code 1317 takes cash for $4, and the lockbox here on a visit day costs nothing. DOCCS takes no commission.
See the full breakdownFree statewide since August 1, 2025. No account, no balance, no per-minute rate. Three calls a week of up to fifteen minutes credited on Saturdays, thirty minutes on calls after those, between 7:00 AM and 11:00 PM, across fifteen approved numbers the person inside manages themselves.
See the full breakdownOne address for everything, 594 Route 216, because this prison has no separate inmate mail box. Mail is inspected at the prison rather than scanned elsewhere, so the paper arrives. No Polaroids, no stamps, no third-party letters, five pages of printed material. Packages from approved vendors only.

594 Route 216, Stormville, NY 12582, with the person's full name and DIN on the envelope. Green Haven is unusual in New York for having no separate inmate mail box, and two official DOCCS sources confirm that. Several third-party sites publish a P.O. Box for it, which is not supported by anything official.
Mail & Photos7:30 AM to 2:30 PM, with a latest arrival of 1:30 PM, effective May 5, 2026. Visiting runs Wednesdays, Saturdays and Sundays. Note that processing pauses for the facility count at about 10:30 AM and resumes once it clears, so arriving mid-morning can mean a wait before you get in.
VisitationThe facility count. Green Haven publishes this explicitly: visit processing is paused for the count at approximately 10:30 AM and resumes once it clears. No other prison nearby publishes this, so a family arriving around then is not being ignored, they are waiting on the count.
VisitationOne per day. Coxsackie allows two and Auburn publishes no cap, so this is the tightest of the three. Each visit is limited to three adult visitors plus one child aged five or under who sits on an adult's lap.
VisitationThe side entrance, which DOCCS also describes as the handicap entrance. Visitors enter Visitor Processing through it and are screened on entering. Green Haven is the only prison in this group that publishes an entrance instruction at all.
VisitationDOCCS addresses this directly in Directive 0053: Green Haven is a flat facility, which allows for the housing of incarcerated individuals who use a wheelchair for independence. That is an unusual thing for the department to state, and it is why some people are placed here.
VisitationNothing. New York made every call from a state prison free on August 1, 2025, and there is no provider account for families to open or fund. Three calls a week of up to fifteen minutes are credited on Saturdays, later calls run to thirty minutes, and the window is 7:00 AM to 11:00 PM.
Phone CallsGreen Haven both takes intake from certain counties and sends, receives and temporarily houses people in transit between facilities or going to court. So a result here can be a stop rather than a placement. Check the lookup before every letter, deposit and visit.
Inmate SearchYes. Green Haven appears on the DOCCS Family Reunion Program list and its own Directive 0053 names Family Services including the programme. Eligibility normally requires a visiting pattern of three visits in the previous twelve months, with discretion for families living more than 300 miles away.
