How to visit, scheduling, dress code, and visitor requirements
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. Before booking, you'll need to register and get approved in the facility's visitor system. Have a valid government-issued photo ID ready when setting up your account or attending any onsite session. 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.

You can deposit money at the kiosk located in the Sheriff’s Office foyer. If you need other payment options or hours, contact Churchill County administration for guidance.
