Mail, photos, messaging, and phone/call options for staying in touch.
You can't call a detainee directly at Eden Detention Center. The facility doesn't accept incoming phone calls to detainees, so communication is generally limited to what the detainee initiates. For urgent or emergent matters, call (325) 869-2704 and press 4, then provide the detainee's identification number so staff can pass along a message with callback information. For everyday contact, detainees can reach you through GettingOut email and video visitation once you set up an account. Attorneys can request Virtual Attorney Visitation (VAV) by emailing edenattorneyappointments@corecivic.com or calling (325) 869-2704. VAV is available to legal representatives, legal assistants, and interpreters with proper identification. Legal calls have specific privacy protections under DHS standards.
