Visitation at Jess Dunn Correctional Center

How to visit, scheduling, dress code, and visitor requirements

Overview

Visiting someone at Jess Dunn Correctional Center starts with submitting the ODOC Visitor Application Form to ODOC's Visitation Unit. Paper forms are accepted at ODOC headquarters and must be addressed to the Visitation Unit. If you're 18 or older, you'll go through a background check that can take up to eight weeks. The inmate is notified once approval is complete and the visit is scheduled. Include a copy of the front and back of your driver's license or state-issued ID with your request, and bring acceptable photo ID on the day of your visit. Without it, you'll be turned away. Minors need guardianship documentation and a parent or legal guardian's signature. Expect pat searches. Bags and vehicles may also be searched, and refusing a search can mean no entry. One critical rule: bringing an unauthorized phone or electronic device into secure areas can be charged as a felony.
