How to Contact an Inmate at Albemarle Corrections Facility, Nc (NC)

Video visits at NCDAC facilities run through the Getting Out Visits app. You'll need to be on the incarcerated person's approved visitors list before you can schedule one. Once approved, the person you're visiting connects from their electronic tablet or a video kiosk inside the facility.

In-person visits are by appointment only. You can't just show up; you need a confirmed appointment first.

NCDAC uses outside partners to handle money deposits. ViaPath (ConnectNetwork) and TouchPay process online, phone, and walk-in deposits. The facility does not accept mailed money orders directly.
