Coming Soon: One Tablet for Every Adult in Custody (AIC)

The Department of Corrections is working toward a new goal: every Adult in Custody will have access to their own state-issued tablet. This change will take time, but we want you to know what it means and what you can expect.

Why We Are Moving to 1:1 Tablets

  • We want AICs to have better access to tools that support communication, learning, and personal growth.
  • Tablets help AICs stay connected with family, complete programs, and get information in a safe, reliable, and timely way.
  • DOC’s long‑term plans include expanding tablet‑based programming and secure communication options. This direction is supported in DOC’s strategic planning work, which highlights expanding tabletbased programs and supporting secure communication with family and friends

What This Means for You and the AICs

  • When the 1:1 system is fully in place, every AIC will receive their own state-issued tablet during intake or at rollout in their facility.

What AICs Will Be Able to Do With the Tablet

Tablets will include tools designed to support daily life, growth, and reentry planning. Depending on final agreements with the vendor, tablets may include access to:

  • Approved communication tools to stay connected with family and friends
  • Entertainment options, such as movies or games (fees may apply)

The goal is to make these tools easier for everyone to access.

What Happens Next

  • The move to 1:1 tablets will happen in phases, and each facility will get information before changes take place. The timeline and order of implementation has not yet been established.

Our Commitment to You

We know that communication, education, and staying connected to loved ones matter.
We are committed to making this transition as smooth as possible and ensuring that tablets support AIC success.

  • Share Will AICs be allowed access to print mail they have received digitally? I ask because the physical copies of mail are something that most AICs hold dear and use to remind them of their connections outside, often by decorating their space or maintaining copies. A digital copy is not accessible in the same way, though I understand it may reduce the introduction of contraband.
