PrisonInmates.com was formed in 1999 and officially launched in early 2000. It is the 2nd longest running prisoner site on the internet. In 2010 PrisonVoice.com, LLC and PrisonInmates.com joined together to become the fastest growing prisoner related site on the internet.

In late 2010 new plans went into motion to change PrisonInmates.com from a simple prison pen pal site, to a fully functioning Social Network which would bring family and friends of inmates all together on one site. We designed it so it's a great place for pen pals to find and meet new inmates to write as well. This new site allows everyone to get involved and share photos, stories and information.

Many of the inmate members of our site state that they have been apart of nearly every prison pen pal service on the web and that PrisonInmates.com is the only one that actually treats them like people. We are very proud of this and we will do what it takes to continue to make our members feel that way.

Our goal is to shorten the communications gap between inmates and the outside world while also building a community of Inmate Supporters who can share information and help build strong positive relationships for inmates. By doing this we can help to reduce recidivism rates and help inmates work towards building a strong future with a positive support group.

Hi - I am a gay man, 45 yrs, live in England. Everyone needs a 2nd chance or some quality of life even if the future doesn't look to bright. Here as a friend to any one who cares to write me. Regards. David.

Hi, my name is Casey Odland, an Ex-con. I have recently finished a self help/motivational and inspirational book called "The Ex-Con and The Italian Princess." This book is for inmates who are considering turning their lives around. The reviews have been fantastic and the book is available worldwide. Go to http://www.casey-cern.com. This book becomes an inmates property, a road map, a reference guide, something to use to create a lifeplan. Contact me, I will respond. I'm glad to find a place like prisoninmates.com that treats the inmates with respect and humanity. Bravo.
