How to send messages, photos, and packages
Mahoning County Jail uses Securus Technologies for inmate phone calls and Securus Video Connect for web-based video sessions. You can register and add funds through the Securus website or by calling the vendor directly. All calls placed through the jail's phone system are monitored and recorded for security purposes. Attorney-client communications may follow different rules in some situations. One thing to know: if the jail switches phone providers, your remaining balance won't transfer. You'll need to contact the old provider to request a refund. For video visits, Securus Video Connect supports scheduled sessions from any internet-connected device, as long as you meet the vendor's account and scheduling requirements. Before registering, confirm whether the jail requires a visitor-approval step, and have a photo ID ready for verification.
Search for a loved one and send messages and photos in minutes.
Register for an account with Securus Technologies through their website or by calling the vendor. Also check whether the jail requires you to be on an approved list before the account can be activated.
Yes. Calls placed through the facility’s inmate phone system are monitored and recorded. Attorney-client communications may be handled differently under specific rules, so confirm the process if you are an attorney.
No. Funds on an account with the current phone provider will not transfer to a new provider. Contact the current provider to request a refund for any remaining balance.
Staying in touch with someone at Mahoning County Jail? Your main options are video visitation and phone calls, both through Securus. Plan ahead: video visits need approval in advance, and picking the wrong time slot can get your visit cancelled.
Sending money to someone at Mahoning County Jail comes down to two things: adding funds to their commissary account and setting up phone funding so you can stay in touch.
Setting up a video visit at Mahoning County Justice Center is straightforward, but a few rules can cost you money if you miss them. Every video visit needs approval at least 24 hours ahead—same-day visits aren't an option. If your visit falls during the housing unit's recreation time, it can be cancelled without notice, and you won't get a refund. You're also limited to two 20-minute video visits per day, so plan accordingly.
