To request a visit at Crowley Correctional Facility, call the visitation line Thursday through Monday, 8:30 a.m.–3:30 p.m., at 719‑267‑3548 ext. 23898. You can also email crowleyvisitation@corecivic.com with visitor and inmate details. Applications can be mailed or emailed to the Colorado Private Prison Monitoring Unit (PPMU) as instructed by the facility—include a current, unexpired government photo ID that matches your address. Approval typically takes about 45 days. Once approved, you're subject to annual background checks, and visiting status can be deactivated after one year without visits. At check-in, you'll complete AR Form 300‑01B (Consent to Search). For medium custody, the back of your right hand gets stamped with an ultraviolet marker. Dress conservatively—no shorts or cargo pants, and skirts or dresses must fall at or below the knee. Portable electronic communication devices are contraband. Violations can lead to seizure and possible involvement of OIG or local law enforcement.
Read full guideCrowley Correctional Facility uses video visitation through Securus. You'll need to be approved on the inmate's visiting list before scheduling anything online. During the session, both you and the offender must be visually identifiable—faces can't be covered or obscured. Nudity of any kind is prohibited, and any child appearing on camera must be fully clothed. Need a refund? The facility directs you to the video visit provider for reimbursement—they handle refund requests, not the facility. Before booking, complete the facility's visitor-approval steps and follow the provider's account setup instructions so scheduling goes smoothly.
Read full guideCrowley Correctional Facility doesn't accept cash or money orders sent by mail. All deposits must go through approved electronic channels—online, by phone, or at vendor kiosks. CDOC uses third-party vendors (JPay, Western Union, and GTL/ConnectNetwork/TouchPay) to process trust and commissary deposits. Fees and processing rules vary by provider. Funds sent before the daily 4:00 p.m. MT cut-off are generally available the next day, but allow 2–3 days for processing, especially for phone or third-party deposits. CDOC withholds a minimum of 20% of any deposit for court-ordered fines, fees, restitution, or child support. For inmate banking questions, call the Inmate Bank at (719) 269-4271. Union Supply is the only approved care-package provider, and care packages are subject to unit spending limits.
Read full guideCrowley Correctional Facility lists Warden Virgil Ensey and publishes a main switchboard phone number plus the facility street address for official contact. Use the main phone line for general questions, then confirm whether separate numbers are posted for specific needs like records requests, visiting questions, or bond-related information. For routine requests, follow the facility or county directions for the right method—phone, mail, or records submission—since some processes (such as visiting applications) may be handled through different channels. For urgent safety emergencies, contact local emergency services rather than relying on the facility switchboard.
