Visitation
Visitation will be available each day from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. Tuesday through Sunday. Visits will be 15 minutes, unless the corrections warden has given written approval.

The visitation schedule, adopted Dec. 20, 2009, is:
• Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays —
Inmates with last names beginning N-Z;
• Wednesdays, Fridays and Sundays —
Inmates with last names beginning A-M; and
• Mondays —
No visitation; however, families are encouraged to pick up property on this day.

Visitors may be of any age, but those under 18 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian. Visitors must provide a valid identification, such as a government photo ID issued by a state, the U.S. government or a foreign country. Matricula consular IDs, passports and identification without photos for religious reasons also are acceptable.

Inmates may participate in visitation only once a day, though visitors may share time during the visit. Only one adult and one child at a time will be allowed at the visitation booth.

The number of visits allowed each week is subject to the inmate’s classification. Corrections officers working the front desk will be able to answer any questions about this topic.

All visitors will be subject to search. Visitors must wear appropriate clothing, subject to the approval of corrections officers monitoring the visitation area. Unacceptable clothing includes spandex, shorts, and shirts with logos endorsing alcohol, drugs, weapons or gangs. Some sports logos, names and designs have been associated with gang activity, and those will not be allowed in the facility.

Head coverings will be allowed only for medical and religious reasons.

Children must be supervised by their parent, guardian or responsible adult at all times, and any children left unattended will be taken into protective custody and reported to the authorities.

At times, other rules may be in effect. Visitors must follow all instructions from corrections officers. Failure to abide by any of these guidelines will result in the termination of visitation privileges.
