Georgia: pen pal rules and how to send mail
We found no rule in this department's published policies that stops people here from being listed on a pen-pal site. Normal mail rules still apply, and no one may ask pen pals for money.
Personal letters go to the person at their prison's mailing address, with their full name and ID number. The department's pages don't say whether letters are scanned or copied.
