Contact and Location Information
How to Find an Inmate at Arrowhead Correctional Center
Members of the public can look for an inmate using the official inmate search link available on this page. County jail rosters commonly list a person’s name, booking date, charges, and custody status; for a state correctional facility, search results may also show a DOC number, assigned location, sentence information, and current custody status. New arrest or transfer records do not always appear immediately. Processing, verification, and data entry can take several hours, so a person may not be searchable right after booking or arrival. If the person does not appear, check again later or contact the facility or the Colorado Department of Corrections for guidance.
FAQs
How do I visit an inmate at Arrowhead Correctional Center?
Visitation rules are set by the Colorado Department of Corrections and may require advance approval before a visit is allowed. Check the official visitation instructions for the facility before traveling, because schedules, visitor limits, and security rules can change.

How do I send mail to an inmate?

How does the commissary work?
Commissary allows inmates to buy approved items such as snacks, hygiene products, and writing supplies. Families can usually add money through the approved deposit system, but limits, fees, and posting times may apply.
How is bail set and how do I post bond at Arrowhead Correctional Center?
Because this is a state correctional facility for sentenced inmates, bail is usually not handled here. If the person has a bond issue, contact the court or the county jail where the case is pending for instructions.
What happens during the intake process at Arrowhead Correctional Center and when will the inmate appear in the system?
During intake, staff verify identity, review records, complete screening, assign housing, and enter information into the correctional system. Records may take several hours or longer to update, so the inmate may not appear in the search system immediately after arrival.
