Every prison has a Commissary that was started to provide prisoners a bank account for inmate funds and for purchasing things not issued regularly by the Bureau of Prisons.

Friends, family, or other people can add funds to inmate’s Commissary accounts using the U.S. Postal Service and Western Union.

Via U.S. Postal Service: An inmate’s family and friends can to send inmates money in the postal service and have to send the money to this address and follow the steps given below:

The funds must be in the form of a money order made out to the prisoner’s full committed name and complete eight-digit register number. It is advisable to use a post office money order, since all non-postal money orders that are processed through the National Lockbox will be placed on a 15-day holding period, during which the prisoner will not have access to the funds. The Bureau of Prisons will return to the sender money orders that don’t have appropriate prisoner information if the envelope it was sent it has a return address. Personal checks and cash cannot be deposited to the prisoner’s account so don’t send any cash or checks.

Lovelock Correctional Center offers a wide range of programs for all of the inmate population and an opportunity to enroll in educational classes in pursuit of a GED, high school diploma or college degrees. Lovelock’s Legislative approved program, Structured Living Program (SLP) is one of the most successful. SLP initially started as a 10 week military-style institutional orientation program. With the popularity among inmates to enroll, this program quickly expanded to a six (6) month regimen with opportunities for inmates to earn Merit Credits, attend classes, programs, education, attain jobs and participate in physical fitness training. Lovelock has begun offering inmates some vocational training in areas of dry cleaning, culinary food service, and automotive maintenance and repair.
