This includes phone calls, video visits, and electronic messaging. The change should lower costs for calls and e-messages compared to the previous provider. Create a Securus account before your loved one's facility switches over so you're ready to use video, messaging, and prepaid options right away. During the rollout, some institutions will stay on the older platform until their scheduled move, so use whichever service is currently active at your loved one's location. CDCR posts a tablet rollout schedule and FAQs where you can track timing and details for CVSP.

Sending money to someone at Chuckawalla Valley State Prison (CVSP) typically involves a few standard options: online or mobile portals, phone deposits, lobby kiosks, and U.S. Postal Service money orders (methods can vary by facility). Funds in an incarcerated person's trust account cover commissary, phone time, hygiene items, and other approved purchases. Some deposits may be reduced by court-ordered restitution or other authorized deductions. Before sending anything, confirm the person's full name, booking or facility ID, and that you're selecting the correct facility so funds post to the right account. Fees and timing depend on the vendor and deposit type. Electronic transfers can take longer to become available than you might expect. Never mail cash, and follow vendor instructions to avoid delays or returned funds.
