Greene Correctional Institution Offender Lookup

Greene Correctional Institution is the state prison facility in Greene County, North Carolina. It is used for sentenced state custody, not recent county jail booking. An offender lookup for this facility should use the state corrections search system and should not be confused with a search for people newly arrested or held pretrial at the local county jail.

Greene Correctional Institution Overview

Greene Correctional Institution is a North Carolina Department of Adult Correction facility at 2699 NC Hwy. 903 in Maury. Its mailing address is P.O. Box 39, Maury, NC 28554, and the phone number published by NCDAC is 252-653-4550. The facility is in Greene County, but it is not operated by the Greene County Sheriff's Office and is not the county jail.

NCDAC lists Greene Correctional Institution as a male minimum-custody reentry facility with capacity for 616 offenders. The official facility page names Warden Shelia Sauls and gives greenevisitation@dac.nc.gov for legal-visit requests. It also displays an ACA-accredited badge. The people held here are sentenced state-prison offenders, minimum-custody workers, reentry participants, work-release participants, ADCP treatment participants, and chronic-care medical support offenders, rather than newly arrested Greene County pretrial detainees.

The NCDAC Greene Correctional Institution page is the matching source image for the state-prison facility details, including capacity, address, and program information.

NCDAC's facility page is the controlling source for Greene Correctional Institution's prison status, capacity, warden, and reentry programs.

Greene Correctional Institution Capacity and Population

NCDAC lists a 616-offender capacity for Greene Correctional Institution. The research also identifies two important capacity details on the same official facility page: ADCP long-term treatment capacity of 64 and 96 chronic-care medical support beds. These numbers describe program and facility capacity, not a live daily count. No separate live count for the facility population was provided in the reviewed research.

The state-prison capacity should be read differently from the local jail capacity. Greene County Detention Center holds local pretrial, short-sentence, and rented-bed custody. Greene Correctional Institution holds sentenced state custody under NCDAC. A person may move from the county jail into NCDAC after conviction and sentencing, at which point the correct lookup system changes from local jail channels to the statewide offender search.

How to Look Up an Offender at Greene Correctional Institution

Use the NCDAC Offender Public Information Search for Greene Correctional Institution. NCDAC says its database includes North Carolina state prison offenders, probationers, and parolees, with historical information back to 1972. It does not include county jail information, so someone recently arrested in Greene County may not appear there unless they are in state prison custody or under state supervision.

  1. Open the NCDAC Offender Public Information Search and choose search criteria such as offender status, last name, first name, offender number, gender, race, ethnicity, birth date, or age range.
  2. Use an offender number when available. Otherwise, search by last and first name, then narrow by age or birth-date range if there are multiple possible matches.
  3. Confirm that the result is an NCDAC state-prison or supervision record, not a county jail record. NCDAC explicitly separates its prison and supervision database from local jail custody.
  4. Check the person's current facility, custody status, and identifying details before using the record for visitation, mail, or money.

For custody-status notifications, use NC SAVAN / VINELink. For county pretrial custody, call Greene County Detention Center instead. For federal custody, use the BOP Inmate Locator; for immigration custody, use the ICE detainee locator. These lookup systems do not replace one another.


Greene Correctional Institution Address and Contact

Use the NCDAC facility phone for facility-specific prison questions, including visit confirmation and current facility status. Use the legal-visit email only for legal visits. Family and friends should not treat the prison as a county jail booking desk; recent arrest, bond, local charge, and county release questions belong with the Greene County Detention Center, the court, or the arresting agency.

Visiting Someone at Greene Correctional Institution

NCDAC prison visitation rules apply at Greene Correctional Institution. The statewide prison visitation page says visits are by appointment only and that visitors should call the prison the day before a scheduled visit to confirm visitation status. That confirmation step matters because prison visitation can be affected by facility operations, custody level, staffing, lockdowns, health restrictions, or an offender's status.

Visit TypeHow It WorksSource Detail
Regular prison visitAppointment requiredCall or email the facility to schedule, then confirm the day before.
Legal visitEmail requestNCDAC lists greenevisitation@dac.nc.gov for attorneys needing legal visits.
County jail visitNot applicableGreene CI is not the Greene County Detention Center and does not use the county jail's weekend video schedule.

The reviewed research did not include a Greene CI-specific public weekly visiting calendar, dress-code excerpt, approved-visitor application form text, visit length, or visitor-count limit. Use NCDAC visitation instructions and direct facility confirmation rather than assuming the county jail's video-visitation schedule applies.


Mail, Phone, Packages, and Money at Greene Correctional Institution

Greene Correctional Institution uses statewide NCDAC service rules. Non-legal prison mail is handled through TextBehind screening and scanning. Legal mail should go to the offender's current facility mailing address and include the offender's name, OPUS number, facility name, and mailing address. Money and phone services use NCDAC's statewide vendors rather than Greene County jail's Pay Tel jail policy.

For packages, do not send items directly unless NCDAC or the approved package program permits it.


Admission and Classification at Greene Correctional Institution

Greene Correctional Institution does not book people from street arrests the way a county jail does. A person usually reaches NCDAC after conviction and sentencing, or through movement within the state prison system. The state, not the county sheriff, controls prison assignment, custody level, transfers, supervision records, and release-processing information.

Because Greene CI is a male minimum-custody reentry facility, the population described by NCDAC includes offenders nearing release and offenders assigned to structured work, education, treatment, and reentry opportunities. If a family member was recently arrested in Greene County, start with the detention center. If the person has been sentenced to prison or is on state supervision, search NCDAC and then verify the current facility before mailing, visiting, or sending money.


About Greene Correctional Institution

Greene Correctional Institution has more published program detail than many facility pages. NCDAC describes religious services, Narcotics Anonymous, Alcoholics Anonymous, Think Smart, Strive Transition Program, Home Leaves, Community Volunteer Leaves, Work Release, independent studies, cognitive behavior intervention, Father accountability, library and recreation, and the Offender Service Club. It also reports about 100 active community volunteers supporting rehabilitative and religious services.

Education and work programs are central to the facility's reentry identity. Lenoir Community College provides adult basic education and GED preparation, along with part-time GED, HVAC, electrical wiring, and computer application classes that include CRC and KeyTrain. Offenders also provide labor for Department of Transportation road squads in Greene, Lenoir, Pitt, and Beaufort counties; long-term labor contracts with local, city, county, and state agencies; private-business work release; and the Inmate Construction Program.

The facility also has specialized treatment and medical-support capacity. NCDAC lists an Alcohol and Chemical Dependency Program long-term treatment capacity of 64 and 96 chronic-care beds for medical support housing needs. Those details are specific to the state prison and should not be applied to the county jail.
