Grant County Jail, WA

Grant County Jail offers on-site video visitation through a HomeWAV monitor in the lobby. Register for a HomeWAV account before you visit—approvals can take up to 24 hours, so plan ahead. All video visits are recorded. Staff can end a visit for disruptive or inappropriate behavior, and a stopped visit may cost you future visitation privileges. The dress code is strict: no nudity, lingerie, swimsuits, see-through clothing, provocative outfits, or tight-fitting clothes. Remove any clothing during a visit, and the session ends immediately. If you're connecting from home, use the standard video-visit process: create your account, check booking windows, and keep in mind that visits can be canceled due to lockdowns or housing moves.

At Grant County Jail, inmates use KITE (Service Request) forms to send written questions or requests to jail staff and other listed services. Need a lawyer? Use the Legal Services Request section of the KITE—it's automatically emailed to the Grant County Public Defender's Office. Each dorm has a kiosk for voice calls, video calls, and video messages. Keep in mind that kiosk KITES and communications are reviewed and aren't confidential. For privileged legal correspondence, use the legal mail process instead. Phone and video sessions are preset to 30 minutes and treated as a privilege. Abuse can mean losing access or facing disciplinary action. Calls and video sessions are recorded and monitored. Kiosk calling requires a prepaid HomeWAV account or phone time purchased through the facility's vendor, so register and fund the account ahead of time.

Grant County Jail lets you add money to an inmate's phone account by calling 1-844-394-6639 or visiting https://app.homewav.com. Phone time can also be purchased through weekly commissary orders. Using a third-party deposit method? Have the inmate's full name and booking or ID number ready so funds are credited correctly. Your loved one receives a confidential telephone/commissary PIN at booking. That PIN should never be shared—using another inmate's PIN can lead to disciplinary action or criminal charges. If you're mailing funds, stick to safer options like a cashier's check or money order instead of cash or personal checks.
