Visiting Inmates FAQ

When can I visit an inmate?

The first thing that must happen is that you must be put on a visitation list by the inmate. Inmates are given forms for this. Once names are placed on a list, a limited background check is done for security purposes.  The list of inmates is then approved and the inmate can have visitors. If you know what area the inmate is located in you can check the visitation schedule here, otherwise call the facility to find out the visitation schedule. If you plan to visit an inmate, please read the Visitation Rules.

Why was I told that an inmate can't have visits?

It is possible that the inmate has been restricted from visitors for some reason. Visitation is a privilege, not a right.
