How to send messages, photos, and packages
Anson Correctional Facility offers both in-person and video visits through the NCDAC system. For video visits, schedule ahead or start an on-demand session using the Getting Out Visits app. Before joining, confirm you're on the incarcerated person's approved visitors list—video sessions won't work without approval. You can typically do a video visit from home with a computer, webcam, microphone, and a recent web browser. Many facilities rely on third-party communications vendors, so you may need to create an account in the vendor's app or portal to manage video sessions (and sometimes phone access or paid tablet features). First time? Check the app setup and the facility's visitor approval process before your visit.
