How to Connect With an Inmate at Edgefield Federal Correctional Institution

Edgefield Federal Correctional Institution (FCI Edgefield) is a South Carolina-based facility in Edgefield County with a current male inmate capacity of roughly 1,480 prisoners in medium security custody. Though the main FCI institution was originally intended to hold up to about 2,048 inmates at the time of its construction, the main FCI Edgefield building is now directly juxtaposed to a smaller satellite-monitored camp (referred to as The Camp) for minimum security containment and surveillance.

Concurrently, FCI Edgefield and the Camp (with about 1/3rd of the FCI's capacity at roughly 500 male inmates) hold a total of about 1800 inmates together overall in the BOP's Southeast Region. FCI and the camp have their respective designated inmate communities specifically assigned to them based on the prisoners' mandatory security level to monitor. While the Camp exclusively holds minimum-security prisoners, FCI is dedicated to meeting the medium security needs for higher potential security risk mitigation.

Whether housed at the main federal prison or the lower- security camp prison site, inmates at Edgefield Correctional have access to programs such as:

1. Adult Occupational Education
2. Residential Drug Abuse
3. Vocational Classes
4. And more to assist in developing both practical and creative skills

How to Visit and Contact Inmates at Edgefield Federal Correctional Institution

Under normal circumstances, the procedure for visiting an inmate at FCI is a matter of simply having them fill out a proper visitation form for a future date and mailing it to the potential visitor for completion. After clearing any verification procedures such as a background check and further correspondence with other law agencies, approved visitors of no more than 10 friends or associates can be allowed up to 4 hours of visiting time. However, currently, be advised that current COVID restrictions have temporarily restricted all visitation at the facility until the threat level is properly lowered.

Phone Calls and Emails

Monitored phone calls can be made with inmates through the provision of paid telephone access privileges, provided that they're able to meet the fee; however, in some cases, you might be able to foot the bill yourself. In addition to phone calls, inmates can also have the ability to email as well with the Trust Fund Limited Inmate Computer System (TRULINCS) application as a bridge to secure general public-facing communication.
