Visitation at Monroe County Correctional Facility, PA
How to visit, scheduling, dress code, and visitor requirements
Overview
Monroe County Correctional Facility offers both in-person and video visits, scheduled through the PA Inmate Visitation System (IVS) with Keystone authentication. Visitation is a privilege, and rules, visit types, and availability vary by housing unit and custody status. Check unit-level restrictions before you travel. To get started, the inmate needs to add you to their authorized visitors list. Adults must create their own IVS account with a Keystone login. For video visits, join using the IVS link close to your appointment time and be punctual, since sessions run back-to-back. Bring a current government photo ID showing your date of birth, and make sure the address you provide at check-in matches your ID. Visitor parking is available in the nearby county deck Monday through Friday (7:00 AM to 5:00 PM, exit ramp closes at 7:00 PM). The deck is closed on weekends and holidays, and costs $5.00 per day.
