How to Contact an Inmate at JPCC, LA (LA)

You cannot call an inmate at JPCC and have them pick up. The facility does not accept live incoming calls. Your only option is leaving a voicemail, and it must be for an approved inmate.

Keep your call setup simple. Three-way calls are prohibited at JPCC. Do not add another person to the line or use any service that turns your call into a conference call.

Steps-to-follow

• ✓ Plan on voicemail, not a live incoming call, since inmates cannot receive incoming calls at JPCC.
• ✓ Make sure the person you are trying to reach is approved for voicemail messages before you send one.
• ✓ Avoid three-way calling or any call feature that adds a third party, since three-way calls are prohibited.

Voicemail is only allowed for approved inmates. Before you count on it, find out what "approved" means in practice. Ask how approval works, who qualifies, and what information you need to provide so your message gets through.

If you are calling from a phone system that uses conferencing (some workplace phones, internet calling apps, or call-recording services), check that it will not be flagged as a three-way call. JPCC prohibits three-way calls, so know which features to turn off before dialing.

Policies can change, especially after operational updates or around holidays. Check the facility's official information or contact JPCC directly to confirm current phone and voicemail procedures.
