You can also directly contact the detention facility where the prisoner is being housed. You may also call the National Suicide and Crisis Lifeline at 988 if the prisoner is in suicidal crisis or emotional distress.
If you wish to communicate non-emergency prisoner medical and mental health matters, please contact the detention facility where the prisoner is being housed directly or the local USMS Federal District office.
