A medium security prison for men in the village of Coxsackie, Greene County, about half an hour south of Albany. It shares the village with a maximum security prison called Coxsackie, it takes a family post box with its own ZIP, and it is the one New York prison found so far that splits holidays by DIN as well as weekends.

View ArticleCalls went free across New York in August 2025 and need no account.
View ArticleLetters go to P.O. Box 975 with the ZIP 12051-0975. The published address leads with P.O. Box 8 and a different ZIP, and Coxsackie Correctional Facility in the same village takes P.O. Box 999, so there are several nearby numbers to get wrong. Mail is opened and inspected at the prison and the paper is handed over.
See the full breakdownGeneral population visits run 9:00 AM to 3:30 PM, arriving between 7:30 AM and 2:00 PM, one visit a day. Weekends alternate by DIN, 0 to 4 and 5 to 9, and holidays are split the same way instead of being open to all. Special housing has its own Saturday evening session, 5:00 PM to 9:00 PM.
See the full breakdownOne statewide tool covers every New York state prison and takes a last name and first name. Two things need care here: North Carolina and Pennsylvania both run a Greene prison, and a result reading Coxsackie, NY could be either of the two state prisons in that village.
See the full breakdownSix routes in, and the two free ones are a money order by post and the visitor lockbox at the prison. Online, the JPay app and the phone all carry a fee and post faster. Every deposit is matched to the DIN, not a name or an address, so the box confusion in Coxsackie never touches the money.
See the full breakdownFree since August 1, 2025, with no account for a family to open or fund. Three calls of up to fifteen minutes credited every Saturday, thirty minutes on anything after that, between 7:00 AM and 11:00 PM, across fifteen numbers the person inside manages.
