Mail, photos, messaging, and phone/call options for staying in touch.
Lockhart Corrections Facility supports several ways to stay connected: Regular visits, Contact visits, and Video/Tablet visits. Which options you can use depends on your relationship to the inmate, the unit's design, and the inmate's privileges. Phone service runs daily from 5:00 a.m. to 12:00 a.m. Calls are capped at 30 minutes and may be monitored and recorded (except calls to an attorney of record). One thing to know about the visitation scheduler: it's tied to your email address. Once an account is created, it cannot be deleted and the email cannot be changed. If you get locked out, use the Forgot Password/Reset link. Across Texas, phone access, remote video visits, electronic messaging, and inmate tablets are common, but specifics vary by unit and vendor.
