How to send messages, photos, and packages
You can stay in touch with someone at John H. Lilley Correctional Center through phone calls, video visits, or electronic messaging, depending on the facility's approved vendors and rules. Video visitation must be scheduled at least 48 hours in advance and follows the same rules as in-person visits. To register for video visits, you'll need a valid photo ID: a U.S. driver license or state ID, an active U.S. military ID, a passport, or a consulate ID. Phone contact is typically handled through outgoing calls placed by the person inside. Calls are usually recorded and billed through vendor options. Do not bring a cellphone or other electronic communication device into secure areas. This is a felony and can carry penalties of up to two years in prison and/or a fine up to $2,500. Use published ODOC contact information for phone or mailing details.
Search for a loved one and send messages and photos in minutes.
