How to visit, scheduling, dress code, and visitor requirements
Visitation at Jenkins Correctional Facility runs on weekends with two sessions each day: 8:30 AM to 12:30 PM and 1:30 PM to 5:30 PM on Saturdays and Sundays. Before visiting, you'll need to complete and submit the Visitation Request Form for approval. Not immediate family? You'll need approval as a significant-relationship visitor through an application the offender starts, which the Warden reviews. Already have a visit scheduled? You can add visitors using the facility's Add Visitor link or cancel using the Cancel my visit link. Plan ahead: weekend visit requests must be submitted by 5:00 PM on Wednesday of the same week. For state-holiday visits, the cutoff is 5:00 PM three days before. Visitation can be refused or revoked for suspected contraband activity, deceptive information on forms, or facility security reasons.
