How to Visit Facility

Everything starts with pre-approval. Every visitor, adults and minors alike, must submit an online application and receive approval from the Central Visitation Unit (CVU) before visiting an inmate.

After you apply, wait for written approval from the CVU. Don't try to schedule a visit or show up hoping to get in early. If your application hasn't been processed yet, or you arrive without a scheduled visit, you'll be denied.

Note: Apply online and wait for written CVU approval before attempting to visit. Show up before approval or without scheduling, and you'll likely be turned away.

How to Visit Facility

Steps to Follow

  • Apply online for visiting privileges (this applies to adults and minors).
  • Wait for written approval from the Central Visitation Unit (CVU).
  • After you have written approval, schedule your visit, then arrive for the scheduled time.

Before starting the application, confirm the current online application process using the official Department of Corrections visitation information. Also verify how you'll receive written CVU approval (through an online portal message, email, or mail) so you know what to watch for. Once approved, find out the next step for scheduling and whether there are any additional check-in steps tied to your first visit.

Reminder: Don't plan travel until you have written CVU approval and a scheduled visit. If you arrive before approval or without scheduling, you can be denied.
