Churchill Detention Facility handles remote visitation through Securus. You can create an account on Securus Video Connect, schedule sessions, and join video visits from home or anywhere with internet access.

Need to add funds for someone in custody? There's a kiosk in the Sheriff's Office foyer for Churchill County inmates. One timing note: newly booked inmates go on a 48-hour lockdown and can only make one hour of phone calls per day during that initial period.

Churchill Detention Facility uses Securus Video Connect for remote communication. Friends, family, attorneys, and officials can schedule and join video visits from anywhere with internet access. Beyond video calls, Securus also lets you send photos, eCards, and video clips—more than just text messages. To pay for calls or messaging, deposit funds at the kiosk in the Sheriff's Office foyer. Make sure your Securus account is set up and funded before scheduling a visit or sending media. Timing matters: newly booked inmates are on a 48-hour lockdown with only one hour of phone calls per day during that period. After lockdown ends, tier rotations can affect phone access times. All communications may be monitored and recorded.

Sending mail to someone at Churchill County Detention Center is straightforward, but details matter. Put your full return address on the envelope and address it to the inmate at the facility's physical address. All mail gets screened and may be opened and inspected for contraband—anything that breaks the rules can be returned or rejected. To speed things along, use the inmate's full name and include their booking or ID number if you have it. Plain paper in a plain envelope helps avoid delays. Want to send more than a letter? Books, magazines, and calendars may be allowed, but often have limits or vendor-only requirements. Check the rules first. If mail isn't ideal, some third-party messaging services let you send photos, eCards, and short video clips instead.
