Visitation at Larned Correctional Facility starts with getting on the resident's approved visitor list, which holds up to 20 people. Married residents must list their spouse as the primary visitor; unmarried residents can designate anyone and may be able to change it under facility rules. The resident will get a visiting request form from their unit counselor and give it to you. Complete it and mail it back to begin registration. KDOC runs a criminal background check on every applicant—you can't visit until you're officially approved. After approval, register (free) and schedule your visit through ICSolutions at icsolutions.com. In-person contact and non-contact visits are free. Offsite and video visits scheduled through ICSolutions have a fee charged at booking.
Read full guideMessaging someone at Larned Correctional Facility happens through ViaPath (GettingOut) tablets. Create a GettingOut account at gettingout.com or through the mobile app, then add funds (minimum $10) before sending electronic messages, photos, or short clips. Current ViaPath pricing: $0.25 per electronic message, $0.25 per electronic photo, and $1.75 for a 30-second video. Residents may also pay vendor rates for printing and entertainment. Video visits are handled by a different vendor—they're not available through the ViaPath tablet. For phone service, Larned uses ICS Corrections.

Read full guideSending money to someone at Larned Correctional Facility means using the right account for the right purpose. Trust-account deposits and tablet-message funds are separate: electronic deposits to a resident's trust account can't go through ViaPath—use Access Corrections instead. For sending messages or photos through a resident's tablet, set up a ViaPath/GettingOut account (gettingout.com or the mobile app) and add funds there. ViaPath requires a $10 minimum deposit for messaging and photo features. Have the resident's account ID ready before you pay—this could be a CFN/register number or facility account number. You can't hand cash directly to staff. Use the approved kiosk, phone/online vendor, or mail option the facility requires, and confirm accepted payment methods first.
