The East Baton Rouge Parish Prison, built in 1968, also known as the East Baton Rouge Parish Prison Complex, is an 1800 bed correctional facility located in a division of Baton Rouge, Louisiana called Scotlandville. It serves as the primary detention center for East Baton Rouge Parish and is responsible for the custody, care, and control of individuals who have been arrested and are awaiting trial or serving sentences. The facility maintains a public jail roster for looking up detained offenders.

The East Baton Rouge Parish Prison is a large complex that consists of multiple buildings and housing units. It is situated at 2867 Brigadier General Isaac Smith Avenue, Baton Rouge, Louisiana, 70807. It can be reached by calling 225-355-3311. The inmate 'personal mail' mailing address, found both above and below this section is not for the jail itself, but is for a third party service that scans the mail and sends a digital copy to the jail, which then gets delivered to the inmate.

Upon admission to the prison, inmates undergo a classification process to determine their appropriate housing assignment and level of supervision. Factors such as the nature of the offense, gang affiliation, criminal history, and behavior are taken into consideration during this process. Extremely dangerous and violent inmates are kept in individual cells, segregated from the rest of the population.

Friends and family members of inmates are typically allowed to visit within specified visitation hours, which are specified below in the inmate visitation section. Outlined below is also information about inmate email, mail, phone use, sending money for commissary.

The East Baton Rouge Parish Prison was built in the 1960s and provides all housing for inmates, both male and female, in the area of East Baton Rouge Parish. Within the jail there are inmates who are waiting for their trial as well as those who have been sentenced, and they are held in appropriately secure housing units as determined by their assessment upon arrival. This assessment will also determine any immediate and ongoing medical needs, provide an outline for mental health services, provide a basis for educational needs and any special accommodation that is necessary.  

To determine if someone you know is being held at the East Baton Rouge Parish Prison they can be contacted at 225-355-3311 or you can check online for the updated list of all inmates who are currently booked into the jail.

There are several housing units within the structure that provide a range of security levels from minimum to maximum, ensuring that inmates are each assigned to the unit that will be the best fit for their needs and that will provide the safest housing for everyone and a safe workplace for the detention officers and other staff.

Each day is structured with three meals, phones are available in common areas through accounts that allow residents to call their approved contacts, and they are able to access both mail and visits.

Classes and programs are running to ensure that any substance abuse or use can receive treatment, support groups help with mental health, educational classes provide literacy and basic education, while vocational training teaches employable skills and allows inmates to perform work related tasks.

Mail can be sent to inmates at:

Inmate's Full Name & Offender# or DOB
East Baton Rouge Parish Prison
P.O. Box 247
Phoenix, MD 21131

... and will be processed before delivery, with all contraband being refused and any illegal conversations resulting in that piece of mail not being delivered.

How Do You Deposit Money for an Inmate in the East Baton Rouge Parish Prison?

TextBehind enables you to communicate with your incarcerated loved ones located inside the United States from anywhere in the world using text letters, kids' drawings, and custom greeting cards. Unlimited inmate reply letters are processed for electronic delivery to your smartphone and email at no extra charge.
The cost to send an electronic letter is approximately $1.00.

Here’s how it works for East Baton Rouge Parish Prison:
1.    All offender mail (paper and electronic) is addressed and delivered to TextBehind. Electronic mail is sent through the apps (iphone, Google Play). Paper mail is sent to the address below:
Inmate Name and Inmate Number
East Baton Rouge Parish Prison Louisiana
(note: please do not abbreviate the name)
P.O. Box 247
Phoenix, MD 21131

2.    If it was sent via TextBehind's app (iphone, Google Play), TextBehind can process it within one business day.
3.    An additional step is involved in processing mail that is sent using the U.S. Postal Service. TextBehind will  use a scanner to make digital files of the contents of the mailing—including cards, photos or artwork.
4.    All digital files are then forwarded to the offender’s assigned prison.
5.    East Baton Rouge Parish Prison mailroom prints approved pages and delivers them to the inmate.

IMPORTANT NOTES:

  • TextBehind does not deliver any mail to the inmate directly, nor do they guarantee delivery of your letters to the inmates by the courier, jail or prison staff. Once they process your mail and ship them out on your behalf, they are out of the loop entirely. However, at times they may offer to resend your letters under certain strict conditions as a courtesy. 
  • Inmates do not receive any invites when you add them, and neither do they need to accept the use of TextBehind service. Once you add the inmate, you can create letters for them. 

Here’s what happens when TextBehind receives a letter from an inmate:

  • Upon receiving, TextBehind staff open their letters, scan, and upload high-quality images to your TextBehind account as a complimentary service. You are not required to have any money or credits balance in your TextBehind account to receive inmate letters.
  • Next, you will receive a text and email alert to notify you of any new incoming reply letters. At that time, you can log into the TextBehind website or mobile app and view letters in your CONTACTS >> Click on Conversation Icon. 

YOU NEED TO KNOW THIS...

  • Inmates do require a stamp to send out their letters to TextBehind using Postal Service.
  • The cash or credit balance from your TextBehind account will not be shared with inmates as a substitute for the stamps. 
  • All letters printed and shipped by TextBehind nationwide to virtually any jail or prison facility are delivered to the jails/prisons by couriers such as the USPS or FedEx as their standard process.
  • After the shipments, TextBehind has no control over the process.
  • The delivery of your letters depends on couriers and prison staff taking necessary action on time.

Why is TextBehind used by Lockups?
