Alexander Correctional Inst, NC

Alexander Correctional offers both in-person and video visits—all by appointment. Call the day before to confirm the facility's visitation status. Before visiting, your visitor application must be completed and approved. The offender gets blank application forms from the facility and can't submit applications on a visitor's behalf. If you're 16 or older, include a copy of an approved photo ID with your application. Minors under 16 need to attach a birth certificate instead. Each offender can have up to 18 approved visitors, with an open enrollment period every six months to update the list. Normally, visits are limited to one session per week (up to two hours), with no more than three visitors per session. Offenders in segregation can only have non-contact visits by appointment.

Video visits at Alexander Correctional Inst run through the GettingOut Visits platform. Your loved one connects from a facility tablet or kiosk while you join through the GettingOut app or the vendor's online portal. Don't want to schedule ahead? GettingOut offers a "Visit Now" option that starts a session on demand when the facility has availability. Pricing is based on actual visit length—no upfront or connection fees. Since a third-party vendor manages communication services, you'll create an account in their system, sign in to manage video visits, and add funds through the vendor portal if needed.

Looking for someone at Alexander Correctional Institution? Start with the facility's public offender search. It shows offender status along with basic details like name, offender number, gender, race, and birth date. You can search by name if you don't have an ID number, or use the offender ID directly. Many state locators also offer filters for status, gender, race/ethnicity, birth date, or age range. Name searches often support "sounds like" matching and may require at least one letter in the first-name field. One thing to keep in mind: state offender searches don't include county jail rosters—those are published separately by county sheriffs.
