How to send messages, photos, and packages
Leblanc Unit uses Securus for remote video visits. Each session runs 60 minutes and costs $10.00. Some facilities limit inmates to one remote video visit per month—check whether that applies at Leblanc Unit before scheduling. For phone calls, you'll need to register your number before receiving calls from anyone at TDCJ. You can register online or by phone; if you run into trouble, call the TDCJ phone registration support line at (866) 806-7804. The name on your driver license or state ID must match your phone listing or bill, and you'll need to confirm you're the account owner and at least 18 years old. Having issues with the phone vendor? Submit complaints by mail to the Huntsville address or email offenderphones@tdcj.texas.gov.
