How to Visit Facility

Before you head out, call to confirm the visiting schedule. This can save you a wasted trip if the schedule has changed or operations are interrupted. Use this number: 603-342-4000.

The dress code is enforced, and staff can turn you away for clothing they consider inappropriate or revealing. Items that are generally not allowed include: revealing shorts, halter tops, bathing suits, see-through garments, crop tops, low-cut blouses or dresses, spandex, miniskirts, backless tops, hats or caps, sleeveless garments, skirts or dresses two inches or more above the knee, and anything resembling inmate uniforms (like khaki or green military-type clothing).

Steps to Follow

  • Call 603-342-4000 before you leave to confirm the visiting schedule.
  • Choose clothing that fits the dress rules (avoid items like revealing shorts, see-through garments, crop tops, low-cut tops, spandex, miniskirts, backless tops, hats/caps, sleeveless garments, skirts/dresses two inches or more above the knee, and clothing resembling inmate uniforms).

When you call 603-342-4000, confirm the current visiting schedule before heading out. It's also worth asking about any dress-code gray areas (say, an outfit that's borderline on length, cut, or sheerness). The policy covers broad categories and doesn't list every possible exception.
