Lookup Shawangunk Correctional Facility Inmates

Shawangunk Custody Overview

Shawangunk Correctional Facility is a DOCCS maximum-security male state prison in Wallkill. It is one of two DOCCS prisons in the Wallkill area of Ulster County, separate from Wallkill Correctional Facility on McKendrick Road. Shawangunk holds sentenced adult males in state custody. That makes the statewide DOCCS locator the core custody search tool, while county jail and sheriff records remain relevant only for a different stage of a local arrest.

The research did not locate a current official capacity or live population number for Shawangunk Correctional Facility, so no stat block is included. The facility-specific details that are confirmed are the operator, address, phone number, security level, visiting schedule, separate incarcerated-individual mail address, and PREA audit postings. Those facts are enough to keep the page focused on the two common needs: confirming state custody and handling contact with a person housed at Shawangunk.

The official DOCCS facility source appears in the local image set. The Shawangunk Correctional Facility page is the source for the facility address, mail address, security classification, visiting schedule, and PREA report links.

The screenshot reinforces the state-prison distinction: Shawangunk information comes from DOCCS, not the Ulster County Sheriff's local jail roster.

Shawangunk Inmate Lookup

Search Shawangunk Correctional Facility through the DOCCS incarcerated lookup or the direct DOCCS lookup portal. DOCCS says last name can be searched by itself or with birth year. DIN and NYSID should be searched alone. A DIN is often the cleanest match for state prison records because it points to the state correctional identifier rather than a local booking or court number.

1. Open the DOCCS lookup rather than the county jail roster.
2. Start with the last name and add birth year only to narrow results.
3. Use DIN or NYSID alone if one is known from court, parole, or prison records.
4. Check the current facility field because DOCCS transfers can change placement.

If the person is not found at Shawangunk, check whether the custody question is really about the local jail, another DOCCS facility, federal custody, immigration custody, parole, or release. Ulster County has both local jail custody in Kingston and four state prisons in the county, so facility names can be confused in search results. Shawangunk is a state-prison record search.

Shawangunk Contact Card

Use the facility contact card for general state-prison routing, visiting confirmation, and address checks. Shawangunk has a separate incarcerated-individual mail address, which is important because sending mail to the wrong box may delay delivery. The facility phone should not be treated as a county booking line or a court clerk line.

The research lists John Wood as superintendent. Because leadership and operational notices can change, the official DOCCS facility page remains the current administrative source. Records beyond the online lookup may need DOCCS FOIL rather than a county records request.

Shawangunk Visiting Schedule

Shawangunk visiting follows DOCCS statewide rules and the facility's own posted schedule. The statewide DOCCS visiting information page states that visitors must follow prison rules and that superintendents may limit or revoke visits for safety, security, and order. The research lists Shawangunk visits on Wednesdays, Saturdays, and Sundays, with one set of hours and separate limits for SHU non-legal visits.

The research lists the Shawangunk schedule as effective May 5, 2026. If the visiting room is full, an additional visit for that day will not be allowed. Visitors traveling a long distance should confirm approval and the day's status with the facility before leaving.

Shawangunk Mail Services

Shawangunk's separate incarcerated-individual mail address is one of the most important facility-specific details. The research lists the facility address as 200 Quick Road, P.O. Box 750, Wallkill, NY 12589-0750, but incarcerated individual mail goes to P.O. Box 700, Wallkill, NY 12589-0750. Money and phone details should be confirmed through DOCCS statewide instructions because the research does not provide official fee or rate tables.

Shawangunk Custody Records

Shawangunk custody records begin with the DOCCS lookup, but that lookup does not replace all other record types. A sentencing record may be in the court system. A past booking photo or arrest report may be in county records if the case began with a local arrest. Parole status may require DOCCS parole resources. These systems answer different questions, and mixing them can lead to wrong conclusions about where a person is held.

DOCCS facility pages identify programs that can include substance abuse treatment, anger management, education or vocational services, family development, guidance and counseling, library and law library, recreation, religious services, sex offender treatment, temporary release, trauma programming, transitional services, veterans services, and volunteer services. The phrase "can include" is important. It does not mean every program is available to every person at all times or in every housing status.

Shawangunk Oversight Records

DOCCS posts PREA audit reports for Shawangunk Correctional Facility. The research identifies a Cycle 4 report dated July 14, 2024, a final report from June 2021, and an audit dated May 31, 2018. PREA audit reports are facility oversight documents, not inmate search records. They help with institutional context, but the DOCCS lookup remains the source for state custody status.

Shawangunk is also part of the broader Ulster County state-prison footprint. The county contains two Napanoch state prisons and two Wallkill state prisons, in addition to the county jail in Kingston. For records work, that makes precise facility naming important. Shawangunk Correctional Facility and Wallkill Correctional Facility are distinct prisons, even though both use Wallkill addresses.
