Jackson County Jail, OR

Visits at Jackson County Jail are scheduled only through the online system during a weekly window from Thursday 1:00 pm through Friday 6:00 pm. Times are assigned based on the AIC's housing unit, so available slots can shift. Each person may book one 30-minute visit per weekend. Contact visits between visitors and AICs are not permitted, and visits between AICs are not allowed. Arrive at least 15 minutes early. Late arrivals have their visit canceled, and all visitors are subject to search upon arrival. The AIC must submit an Active Visitor List with up to 10 people, and only the AIC can change names through official correspondence. Special visits are considered only under extreme circumstances through the Jail Commander. Ministers must be cleared by the Jail Chaplain.

Jackson County Jail uses collect-call telephones for people in custody. Calls are only allowed during prescribed hours. If you accept a call, the telephone company will charge you for it. Both calls and video sessions may be monitored by jail staff and can be terminated at any time, so don't expect these communications to be private. If you receive unwanted calls, contact jail staff at 541-774-6872 to request a one-year block. Once placed, the block will not be removed during the following year. Video visits are provided through ViaPath Technologies. You'll need to create an account on the vendor site before scheduling, and all video visits must be initiated by the visitor. The jail recommends using a computer with a webcam and microphone, high-speed internet, and testing your device before the visit.

Jackson County Jail offers a few ways to add funds, but the rules are specific. A lobby kiosk accepts cash deposits 24 hours a day. You can also deposit cash (except bail) at the reception counter, but only on visiting days and only after completing a visit. Bail is handled separately. Cash bail is posted Monday through Friday, 8:00 am to 4:00 pm at the Justice building courthouse (100 S. Oakdale, Medford). For after-hours bail, pay by credit or debit card through correctpay.com or at the jail lobby kiosk. If you mail funds, send a money order or cashier's check payable exactly as "Jackson County Jail for (insert AIC's name)" and include the incarcerated person's name and ID. Personal checks are not accepted unless from a local attorney's trust account. Before sending money, confirm whether you're funding commissary or phone/communication.
