How to Visit Facility

Visiting Fluvanna Corrections Center goes smoothly when you know the rules that could get you turned away (or worse) and the basics that keep your loved one connected.

• 2 min read Based on general VA policies

The Virginia Department of Corrections doesn't mess around with contraband. If a visitor brings in or tries to bring in prohibited items, the DOC says they will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. They even publish examples of recent arrests. Take the prohibited-items rules seriously before you head in.

Want to help your loved one keep making calls? Family and friends can deposit money into an inmate's prepaid phone account through ConnectNetwork (Global Tel*Link). You can also call the vendor toll-free at 1 (800) 483-8314.

Steps to Follow

  • ✓ Do not bring contraband, and do not try to pass anything in. The Virginia DOC states visitors who introduce or attempt to introduce contraband will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.
  • ✓ If you need to fund an inmate’s prepaid phone account, use ConnectNetwork (Global Tel*Link) or call the vendor toll-free at 1 (800) 483-8314.

Before you make the trip, double-check that your phone-funding method is still current. Verify that ConnectNetwork (Global Tel*Link) still handles deposits into inmate prepaid phone accounts, and confirm the toll-free number (listed as 1 (800) 483-8314) hasn't changed.

Legal risk: Review the current prohibited-items rules before your visit. The Virginia DOC states visitors who introduce or attempt to introduce contraband will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.
