We are making the move to providing forums for specific prisons. This takes some time, and as such, one of the first steps is to define the regions in which the prisons are located. The NY Department of Corrections calls these areas "Hubs", and so will we for the time being.

The Wende Hub is located at the far Western side on New York State and includes the following prisons and institutions, listed by security level.


Maximum Security
Attica
Wende - Reception

Medium Security
Albion
Collins
Groveland
Gowanda
Livingston
Orleans
Wyoming

Minimum Security
Buffalo - Work Release
Lakeview - Shock Incarceration
Rochester - Work Release

The DOC Map can be found here:

As these regions / hubs continue to grow, we will likely start creating sub-forums dedicated to specific prisons. We have an unlimited number of forums we can host here at PTO; however they must be active and contain a good bit of content. We will come back and analyze this ever so often.

Thanks!
