Dodge Corrections Inst., Wi

All visits at Dodge Correctional Institution, both video and in-person, must be scheduled through ICSolutions. You'll need an ICSolutions account to get started. In-person visits require at least 48 hours' advance booking, and you'll need a Party ID from the person in custody (DCI staff will not give out Party IDs). You can schedule only two visits at a time. Weekly in-person visits are limited by status, and each visit allows up to five approved visitors. Children under five don't count toward the five-person limit but still need approval. Arrive at least 15 minutes early for processing, and confirm current check-in cutoffs around institutional count times. Bring photo ID if you're 16 or older, follow a conservative dress code, and leave wallets, purses, watches, and cell phones in your vehicle. Lobby lockers accept only ID and car keys. You may bring up to $25 in change in a clear pouch for vending. Don't share food or drinks, and you cannot leave money for persons in custody. If you have a metal-detecting medical device, submit a DOC-2424 Visitor Requesting Accommodations form for approval before visiting. For DCI-specific help, you can leave a message on the visiting support phone.

Dodge Corrections Inst. (DCI) offers on-unit video visits that must be scheduled at least 48 hours in advance and no more than seven days ahead. These are not available for RHU placements. Each video visit lasts 25 minutes, and you may need to show photo ID when the visit begins. If either you or the person in custody is more than 10 minutes late, the visit automatically cancels. Wisconsin DOC policy provides one free video visit per week for each person in DOC care. General Population inmates can purchase up to 12 additional paid 25-minute visits per month at $2.50 each when operations permit. For technical or account issues, DOC directs families to vendor support (ICSolutions/GTL). DOC is also transitioning tablet messaging to ICSolutions, so families should create a GettingOut (GTL) account and keep CorrLinks accounts open until further notice.

If you're visiting Dodge Correctional Institution, you can bring up to $25 in change (no paper money) for the visiting-center vending machines. Keep the coins in a clear pouch. You cannot leave money for a person in custody at DCI, and food or drinks cannot be shared during visits. To send funds, families typically use third-party deposit options like online portals, kiosks, phone vendors, or mail. Have the person's full name and ID ready. If you mail funds, money orders or cashier's checks are the usual options (not cash or personal checks). Wisconsin DOC is transitioning tablet services to ICSolutions, so messaging through ICS tablets requires a Getting Out (GTL) account. ICSolutions video visits require a Party ID provided to the person in custody.
