Overview

SCI Camp Hill is PA DOC’s intake and classification center, so a recently sentenced man often stays only a few weeks before transferring to another prison. That matters when you send money: confirm his current location in the PA DOC inmate locator first, because a deposit sent to the wrong facility or account is the top reason money stalls. Deposits run through JPay, the service the Pennsylvania Department of Corrections (PA DOC) uses at every state prison, and a JPay balance follows the person after a transfer, so you don’t have to start over. The full deposit process is in Send Money to SCI Camp Hill, method by method, with the caps and the money order mailing address. For a hold on the account, SCI Camp Hill’s business office line is (717) 737-4531.

Q

Should I wait to send money if someone just arrived at SCI Camp Hill?

You don't have to wait. A JPay balance follows the person when they transfer out of Camp Hill, so money you send now stays with them. Just confirm their current location in the PA DOC locator before each deposit, since intake transfers happen fast.

Q

Will the money follow if he's transferred out of SCI Camp Hill?

Yes. His JPay account and balance move with him to the next PA DOC prison. You don't open a new account. Confirm the new location in the PA DOC locator before you send anything more, so a deposit doesn't chase the old facility.
