Hale Creek ASACTC Overview
New York State DOCCS lists Hale Creek ASACTC as a medium-security male facility in Fulton County. The official facility page gives the Johnstown address, the incarcerated-individual mail address, the main phone number, and Superintendent Rachel Young. DOCCS directive material also uses the name Hale Creek Correctional Facility, so both names may appear in state documents. The ASACTC name signals an alcohol and substance-abuse correctional treatment center, and DOCCS program material confirms that Comprehensive Alcohol and Substance Abuse Treatment is offered at Hale Creek for males.
Hale Creek ASACTC is different from Fulton County Correctional Facility. The county jail handles new arrests, pretrial detention, local jail sentences, CAP arraignment custody, and state-ready holds before transfer. Hale Creek handles sentenced state prisoners already committed to DOCCS. That means county roster and VINELink searches are not the main path for current Hale Creek custody. Use the DOCCS incarcerated lookup for prison custody, and use county jail channels only for earlier local booking or court records.
Hale Creek ASACTC Population
Current capacity and population were not located on the public DOCCS facility page in the research file. The reliable facility details are security level, sex classification, location, superintendent, and the treatment role. The 2021 PREA audit describes Hale Creek as a 31-acre site, with 15 acres inside the secure perimeter. Because the current public facility source did not provide a live count or rated bed number, no population total should be inferred from the county jail count, from old prison summaries, or from unrelated New York facilities.
The most important population distinction is legal status. A person at Hale Creek ASACTC is in state prison custody after sentencing. A person newly arrested in Fulton County, even if later state-ready, is still a county jail matter until transfer. DCJS jail reports counted 2 state-ready prisoners at the Fulton County jail in May 2026, which shows the transfer stage, but it does not show Hale Creek's prison population.
Hale Creek ASACTC Lookup
Use the DOCCS incarcerated lookup for Hale Creek ASACTC inmate search. DOCCS guidance says to search by last name alone or with birth year, or to search by DIN or NYSID alone. A DIN is the state Department Identification Number and is usually the most precise prison identifier. The lookup is for sentenced state prisoners, including a person housed at Hale Creek. It is not a county jail booking list and should not be used as the first source for a person just arrested in Johnstown, Gloversville, or elsewhere in Fulton County.
- Open the official New York DOCCS incarcerated lookup.
- Search by last name alone, or add birth year if the name is common.
- If a DIN or NYSID is known, use that identifier by itself.
- Review the current facility field to confirm Hale Creek ASACTC or another DOCCS location.
- Use DOCCS visiting, mail, and release information after confirming state custody.
| Search Field | Use | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Last Name | Name search | Use alone or with birth year |
| Birth Year | Narrowing field | Optional with last name |
| DIN | Identifier search | Use alone |
| NYSID | Identifier search | Use alone |
For a recent local arrest, the proper first stop remains the county jail and VINELink path, not Hale Creek. A sentenced person may be moved from Fulton County Correctional Facility to any DOCCS prison after classification, not only to the state facility physically located in Fulton County. The Fulton County inmate population page separates the county jail and state prison populations so those custody paths do not get mixed.
Hale Creek ASACTC Contact
Use the DOCCS facility line for Hale Creek ASACTC questions about visitation schedules, mail routing, prison contact rules, and current facility procedures. Do not call the Fulton County jail for a person already in Hale Creek state custody unless the question is about an earlier local booking or a record created before transfer. The general street address and mail address are separate, and mail to an incarcerated individual should use the DOCCS mail address with the person's name and DIN.

Hale Creek ASACTC Visits
Hale Creek visitation is governed by DOCCS, not by the Fulton County jail appointment schedule. The research file cites official 2025 and 2026 Hale Creek visitation schedules. Those schedules divide weekend visitation into population segments by the last digit of the incarcerated individual's DIN, while holiday visitation is open to all incarcerated individuals. Older DOCCS family handbook material lists Hale Creek visiting hours as Saturday, Sunday, and legal holidays from 8:30 AM to 2:30 PM, with no processing after 2:00 PM. The current annual schedule should control eligible weekends.
| Visit Rule | Hale Creek Detail | Why It Matters |
|---|---|---|
| Schedule basis | Weekend segments by last digit of DIN | Visitors must check the annual schedule |
| Holiday visits | All population, per schedule | Holiday rules differ from normal weekends |
| Older handbook hours | 8:30 AM-2:30 PM | Verify with the current schedule |
| Processing cutoff | No processing after 2:00 PM in older handbook | Late arrival can prevent a visit |
| Custody system | DOCCS prison rules | County jail visit blocks do not apply |
Prison visitation generally requires current approval, valid identification, screening, and compliance with DOCCS dress and conduct rules. The annual schedule is especially important at Hale Creek because a visitor may arrive on a weekend when the incarcerated individual's DIN segment is not scheduled. Call the facility or review the current DOCCS schedule before travel.
Hale Creek ASACTC Mail and Money
Mail for a Hale Creek incarcerated individual goes to P.O. Box 950 in Johnstown and should include the person's name and DIN. The street address on Maloney Road is the facility location, not the mail line shown by DOCCS for incarcerated individuals. Phone, video, and money rules follow DOCCS statewide family and visitor policies and approved vendors. The static research capture did not locate facility-specific money vendor details or a fee table for Hale Creek, so vendor names or fees should not be guessed.
| Service | Provider or Detail |
|---|---|
| Mail Address | Name and DIN, P.O. Box 950, Johnstown, NY 12095 |
| Facility Address | 279 Maloney Road, Johnstown, NY 12095-3769 |
| Phone or Video | Use DOCCS statewide rules and approved vendors |
| Money Deposit | Use DOCCS statewide rules; no Hale Creek fee table located in static capture |
Do not apply the Fulton County jail's Securus note to Hale Creek unless DOCCS confirms the same system for the state facility. County jail call rules are local-jail rules. Hale Creek is a DOCCS facility, and its family contact rules come from state prison policy.
Hale Creek ASACTC Intake
Hale Creek ASACTC does not book street arrests in the way the county jail does. Intake into a state prison follows sentencing and DOCCS classification. A Fulton County defendant may first be held at Fulton County Correctional Facility as pretrial or state-ready custody. After sentencing to state prison, the person is transferred to DOCCS, and the state decides placement based on classification, bed space, programs, security, and other prison factors. Hale Creek may be the current facility, but it is not guaranteed just because the conviction came from Fulton County.
The DOCCS CASAT role is central to Hale Creek's identity. DOCCS Comprehensive Alcohol and Substance Abuse Treatment material identifies Hale Creek as a male CASAT location. That program role is separate from a court's initial charge decision or a county jail's booking record. Court records, jail records, and state prison records should be checked in the system that created each record.
Hale Creek ASACTC Programs
Official sources describe Hale Creek as a medium-security male facility in the Mohawk Valley, Town of Johnstown, Fulton County. The PREA audit reviewed the site, housing and program context, food service, recreation, and compliance areas. The audit states that the facility occupies 31 acres, with 15 acres inside the secure perimeter. DOCCS directive 0025, dated December 22, 2025, classifies Hale Creek Correctional Facility as medium security and cites the state regulatory classification.
Records users should avoid treating Hale Creek as a county jail annex. It is a state prison with DOCCS control, prison visiting schedules, prison mail routing, and state-prison lookup. Fulton County courts and the Fulton County jail may still have records about an earlier arrest, charge, or transfer stage, but the current custody record for a Hale Creek resident belongs to DOCCS.
Note: Confirm current facility location and visiting eligibility through DOCCS before travel or mail.
