Hardeman County Corrections, TN

Hardeman County Corrections follows TDOC visitation rules. You'll need to complete the CR‑2152 Visitor Application and attach a current photograph. The facility should provide blank forms. Return yours with a photo within 30 days, and expect an approval or denial within 30 days after they receive it. No one gets in until their application is approved, though immediate family of newly committed inmates may be allowed temporary visits while approval is pending. The facility can approve all immediate family members who apply, plus up to eight additional adults on the offender's visiting list. The form cannot list a P.O. Box address. Visitors under 18 must be accompanied by a parent, legal guardian, or approved guardian. Children age six and older need updated photos at specific ages. If the custodial parent can't attend, bring the notarized Parental Consent/Release (CR‑2152, page 2).

Hardeman County Corrections only allows outbound calls. The Tennessee Department of Correction does not permit inbound telephone calls except in a verified family emergency, when the facility chaplain may help facilitate contact. Phone service runs through GTL/ConnectNetwork, and the per-minute rate dropped to $0.075 (7.5 cents) effective July 1, 2024. Each inmate can have up to ten approved phone numbers, and calls only go to numbers on that list. If you want to be removed from an inmate's approved list, submit a written request to the facility warden or superintendent. To fund calls, you can send money directly to Global Tel*Link at its Denver address or set up a ConnectNetwork/AdvancePay account for prepaid credits and e-messages. Keep in mind that vendor-managed calls and messages are generally subject to monitoring.

To send money to someone at Hardeman County Corrections, you'll use TDOC's vendor partners JPay or ViaPath/ConnectNetwork for inmate trust fund deposits. ConnectNetwork gives you several ways to pay: online, by phone, at in-facility kiosks, by mail, or with cash at about 26,000 retail locations (including Walmart and Kroger). Posting times vary by method. Some automated options (AdvancePay, PinDebit, DebitLink) post immediately, while automated Trust Fund deposits are transmitted to the facility within one business day. Convenience or processing fees are shown by the third-party processor during checkout, so follow the prompts and keep your receipt. Before submitting a payment, confirm you have the right person by using their full name plus their facility ID (jacket number) or birthdate.
