Setting Up Video Visits at Franklin County Corrections Center II: First-Time Guide

Franklin County Corrections Center II (2460 Jackson Pike) uses virtual visits instead of in-person visitation. All visits run through GTL ViaPath Technologies - so you'll register and connect through their system rather than showing up at the facility.

This guide is for friends and family trying to set up a first-time video visit with someone incarcerated at Franklin County Corrections Center II. If your loved one is housed there, GTL/ViaPath is the vendor you’ll use to register, schedule, and complete virtual visits.

Head to https://franklinOH.GtlVisitMe.com/app to create your visitor account. You'll use this same site to schedule visits once you're registered. Get the registration done first - it makes everything else go smoother.

Good news: the Franklin County Sheriff's Office provides two free virtual visits per week, 20 minutes each. Keep this limit in mind when planning around work or childcare - you can't schedule unlimited free sessions.

  • Use GTL’s pay-per-visit option if your loved one has already used their free visit quota.
  • Purchase a visit when you need the paid option for convenience.
  • Pay-per-visit can also be used when the time or type of visit falls within the facility’s guidelines for a charged visit.
