Visiting at Augusta Corrections Center starts with approval. Every visitor (adults and minors alike) must apply online and be pre-approved by the Central Visitation Unit before attempting an in-person or video visit. General population in-person visiting hours are listed as 8:00 a.m. to 4:45 p.m., and each inmate gets a minimum of one two-hour visit per seven-day period. Video visitation is limited to five people total, including children. Minors must be accompanied by an adult who is their parent or legal guardian. Arrive with a valid government photo ID, follow the facility's dress and conduct rules, and schedule within the allowed booking window. Breaking video-visit rules can lead to a six-month suspension, and serious or repeated violations may result in a permanent ban.
Read full guideAugusta Corrections Center uses the VADOC phone system operated by ConnectNetwork/Global Tel*Link. Expect all non-attorney calls to be recorded and monitored. Each call is limited to 20 minutes, which helps keep phone access available to everyone. Inmates can maintain an approved call list with up to 15 numbers. To pay for calls, you can set up a pre-pay account or add funds to the inmate's PIN Debit Account through ConnectNetwork. The vendor handles billing and technical support. If you're looking to use video or other vendor services, confirm which communication options Augusta supports first, then create and verify your vendor account before attempting remote visits or messaging.
Read full guideAugusta Corrections Center uses third-party vendors for most money-related deposits. JPay handles funds sent directly to inmates, while ConnectNetwork covers pre-pay phone accounts and PIN Debit deposits (toll-free 1-800-483-8314). Do not mail money orders, cash, or personal checks to the facility. Instead, follow the vendor's deposit steps and enter the inmate's exact name and ID as the facility lists them to avoid delays. Fees, deposit methods, and posting times vary by vendor and account type, so make sure you're using the correct portal for what you're funding. If your deposit doesn't post, contact the vendor first. If that doesn't resolve it, reach out to the facility's finance or commissary channel.
