I am trying to help out people and my therapist said maybe this will help my anxiety... So here goes... If this helps one person out that's all I can do... Then it will be a success...
I love how the inmates are given the chance to connect to the outside world. I just wrote my first letter today and it went smoothly. I really hope the site continues this.
Thank you Jerahmeel. We appreciate you reaching out to those incarcerated on our website. We hope you find many great friendships!
I love worshiping praising going to church working and just talking with people about God because he is good all the time so please please let me know if you want to chat
Thank you Carlos. We would love to help you reach out to potential pen pals. Please contact us at [email protected] or write us at WriteAPrisoner.com, PO Box 10, Edgewater, FL 32132-0010. We will be looking forward to hearing from you.
Allowing people to write to as many people as possible! A site where people are taken advantage of, a site where your PP can have multiple pen pals while the felon can promise each the sun, the moon and the stars and when you are not at their beck and call they have a back up person to fill the void.
Hello M.P.,
We do not and cannot limit the number of replies an incarcerated person receives while in prison. We do advise pen-pals against engaging in romantic relationships; instead, we encourage pen-pals to offer friendship and support.
Thank you.

A great way to meet people to genuinely get to know. Also, a service like this helped me to meet some really cool friends when I was on the inside.
Thank you Maurice! We are so happy to hear you enjoyed our website both inside and outside. We appreciate your support!
Ho appena inviato una lettera e attendo una risposta ma credo sia un buon sito dove parlare con un ragazzo.
Hello and thank you Silvana P. We appreciate your support in writing to those incarcerated.
I sent a month ago and did not receive any response. How do I know that the message has been received. Today I sent a message to another person and I hope next month I will find a reply. I wish I could write even once a week
The law created the prison to make a boundary between two groups of people. The site writeaprisoner.com is an unusual way to break that wall.
Hello Ivaylo. Thank you for your support in "breaking the wall". Working together we can continue to help those incarcerated and their loved ones.
I'm so grateful for writeaprisoner! I have met many wonderful inmates that are ready to change their lives and take the next step to become better people. I've been able to help pen pals connect with attorneys and civil leaders, provide them with resources for the betterment of their future and preparation for release, as well as be another form of support as they complete their sentence. Writeaprisoner is a great platform for everyone!
Thank you Kayla. We appreciate your support in writing those incarcerated. We know that connection is key to reducing recidivism for most inmates and can bring lifelong friendships for those inside and outside.
I love to keep others happy as long as they do the same thing. I'm a smooth guy just got to get to know me.
This is my first time. Let's see if they response. But for now, I am giving them 5 stars. Thank you!

Alot of guys depend on this site for friendships or maybe romance.

This website should be ashamed for allowing married men who are active with their wives to cheat, manipulate connive other women. My husband is Married. Take this profile down' he's taking my hard earned money to go behind my back and do this! And we are scheduled for a family visit November 25th 2022. Elliott Singletary k*******

Thank you.

Thank you Jamee. We appreciate your support!
I went on this website looking to just communicate with someone who just needed a good listener as well as a positive friend. I was writing this inmate since August 2021 and thought things were going great for the first 2 months. I made the mistake believing that he wanted to change he was calling daily and I thought he needed a person to listen to him, so I offered to help him he never ask for anything, I sent him money and open a account so he can call, but after the last Money ordered I sent him he stop calling for about a month so I figure that was that he lied about everything and he did call, but I was already over his $#*!. He just wanted my time and more money, but I told him what I thought about him and yes he sent a photo that was about 10 years ago so who knows what he looks like now. But please be careful and aware of some of these inmates because they shoot a lot of lies and can be very manipulating it makes it bad for the ones that are sincere. Just do not send money and be very careful because some are scammers.
Hello Joanna,
Thank you for your time and information. We appreciate your feedback.
My stepson is in a California prison and asked me to look into this site. Even though it had a search feature by sex, race, and location that listed prisoners by their last name, after 15 clicks it sent me to the Cs and back to the Bs, kept reverting to Hispanic instead of African American, and sent me to the state website to actually locate him. It's worthless.
Hello,
Our website has a basic search and advanced search. The basic search link is https://writeaprisoner.com/search-inmates. The advanced search link is https://writeaprisoner.com/inmate-search-advanced.
Thank you.
There are many pages nowadays who invite you to write prisoners, this one is surely not the worst... You just have to be careful what you say and have in the back of the head that you might be scammed for money or even just entertainment.
Hello Julian,
Thank you for your feedback. We appreciate your support.
I hope to find a real friend on this site!
I liked the idea of this site - it is very kind and makes you think about the good attitude towards the prisoners.
Thank you Eva. We appreciate your support and wish you much success in finding pen-friends.
It's really great to have an app like this. They may be convicted. They can be good or bad people. But they deserve to laugh as much as we do
Thank you Yasar. We appreciate your support.
Thank you Virginia. We hope you find many pen friends and appreciate your support in our program!
