How to Send Money to JPCC, LA (LA)
Sending money to someone at Jefferson Parish Correctional Center (JPCC) is straightforward once you have their ID number. Here are the approved methods and what to verify before you send anything.
Friends and family can deposit money into an inmate's account at JPCC so they can purchase items from commissary. Commissary is where people inside buy basics and personal items using their own funds. Getting money into the correct account is essential.
Do not mail cash to JPCC. If you want to deposit cash, the facility only accepts it at the kiosk in the JPCC lobby.
JPCC has a lobby kiosk located in the Intake/Booking lobby. It is available 24 hours a day, and it is cash-only (it does not take credit or debit cards).
If you're not paying cash at the kiosk, JPCC accepts internet deposits through Forecomm Solutions using a credit or debit card. You can also mail a money order, but it must include the inmate's correct name and CCN. Mailed money orders take 1 to 3 business days to process.
