Situated on Old Colony Road in Selinsgrove, PA, the Snyder County Correctional Facility serves the city and surrounding area with a top capacity of 154. Towns, municipalities, the Selinsgrove Police Department and US Marshal’s all use this building.

For the Police Department it functions as their long term lock up as they only have a small temporary holding facility otherwise. It was completed and began operation in 1996 and averages just over 3100 bookings each year.

Visits are encouraged and visiting hours occur Monday to Friday from 9am until 6pm, and access to phones for outgoing calls during the same hours is provided for all inmates.

In order to fund their phone accounts, JailATM is used at https://deposits.jailatm.com/webdeposits/ which will allow for phone calls, video calls, and email services.

Working alongside the programs within the jail, the Treatment Court program offers an alternative to help reduce recidivism through rehabilitation efforts and treatments rather than regular housing in the general population. This program is available to those who’s crimes are driven by addiction.

The Work Release Program offers an opportunity for qualified inmates to maintain their day job and return to work each morning, while reporting directly back to the prison after work. They are limited to the number of hours a week they work, and they must remain in the facility at least one full day each week. Each of these is aimed to help offenders learn the skills required to prevent a return to jail, overcome obstacles and addictions, and help them to move forward after their release.

How Do You Deposit Money for an Inmate in the Snyder County Correctional Facility?

There are FOUR options for putting money on an inmate's books:

Option 1 - Dropping Money at the Jail
Bring money to the jail in person. 
Either the jail personnel will process the Inmate Account payment or you will use a Jail ATM self-serve kiosk in the lobbies that accepts cash, debit or credit cards.

Option 2 - Deposit Inmate Money Online
Snyder County Correctional Facility uses Jail ATM to process all online deposits to an inmate's account. The company charges you a small fee for doing so, but the fee probably isn't as much as gas and parking would cost to take it to the jail in person.

Option 3 - Mail the Inmate Deposit to the Jail
Mailing a deposit takes more time to process than the other methods but can be done if you live too far away to bring it in person and you don't have a debit/credit card for online deposits. Never send cash. Always send a Money Order from the US Post Office, a reputable bank or Western Union. Call the Snyder County Correctional Facility first as they may want you to do this online or at the jail kiosk instead.
Make the Money Order out to the payee the jail names (check with the jail first) and put their Inmate ID# in memo section of the Money Order. Never mail cash or a personal check.
