Lewis And Clark County Jail

Visiting someone at Lewis And Clark County Jail takes a little planning, but the basics are straightforward. In-person visitation runs on Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays from 8:00 a.m. to 9:30 p.m. The jail also offers in-pod video visitation, which costs the visitor, lasts 15 minutes per session, and isn't available during lockdown hours. You'll need a government-issued photo ID. All visitors must be at least 18, and immediate family under 18 can only visit with a parent or legal guardian. Before you go, make sure the inmate has submitted visitor requests listing each visitor's full name, address, and date of birth. Complete any required approval steps ahead of time. Arrive early, follow check-in rules, and know that violations can end a visit and affect future privileges.

Lewis And Clark County Jail uses NCIC for prepaid phone calls, video visits, and inmate messaging. To get started, create and fund an account at https://account.ncic.com, where you can manage calling, messaging, and video options. Mail works a bit differently here: anything sent to the facility's processing address gets scanned and delivered electronically, so the inmate views it on jail kiosks or tablets rather than receiving physical letters. Attorney communication is treated as privileged. Attorney visits aren't limited in frequency, and the jail asks that they be scheduled between 8:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. Regular calls and video sessions are commonly monitored and recorded. Expect occasional tablet or service outages.

You can add funds for someone at Lewis and Clark County Detention Center either in person at the lobby kiosk or online through NCIC (NCIC.com). At the kiosk, cash deposits carry a $4 funding fee, while credit-card deposits add a $4 fee plus a 4% processing charge. If you bring cash to the lobby, you'll still need to deposit it through the public kiosk. It gets credited to the inmate's commissary account. The lobby also lets you drop off a full book of stamps or medication. Online deposits through NCIC have their own fee, and the money may not be available immediately. You can manage NCIC accounts and communications like prepaid calling, video visits, and messaging at account.ncic.com.
