We all know Prisoners get totally cut off from contacting the world outside of prison and likewise, family and friends can become cut off from the prisoner. Restrictive correspondence, visiting, and telephone policies and a general lack of information about where the prisoner is currently all make it very challenging to stay in contact with an inmate. But how frustrating it gets when we tried to find an inmate only to see that the prison link was out of date and didn't work. Not to mention trying to find out information about a prison inmate in another country! So we began to build the largest database of prisons in the Internet and also how to search for prisons and find out everything you need to know about visiting an Inmate.In order to find lost friends and loved ones we created  InmateAid a prison directory, an inmate locator & resource for sentencing laws - where you can send your inmate money, letters, books, magazines with discount prison telephone service.If you cannot find your inmate, please feel free to create a Personal Inmate Page yourself. Communicating with a loved one who has been incarcerated is one of the most effective ways to stay connected and show your support. Our free inmate search offers a way for family and friends to locate an inmate and open up lines of communication.Our site will help you identify your loved one within the system, and can help you locate their profile which may have additional information regarding their current location. We will also assist you with other issues affecting your loved one such as recharging their commissary account, the inmate trust fund, sending them money via Western Union, or other approved money transfer programs, discount telephone services serving any and all prison (or jail) systems, the ordering of magazine subscriptions, books and newspapers, or even the writing of letters being delivered to them from you on your behalf including pictures all from the ease of your smartphone or computer.
