Each visit lasts at least one hour. The clock starts when the incarcerated person enters the visiting room, not when you arrive or check in.

Visitation sessions on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday are scheduled at 8:15 am, 9:30 am, 12:00 pm, 1:15 pm, and 2:30 pm.

Visitation sessions on Thursday and Friday are scheduled at 12:15 pm, 1:30 pm, 4:30 pm, 5:30 pm, and 6:30 pm.

Check-in timing matters: Arrive 15 minutes early. If you miss the check-in window, you forfeit your visit.

Dress rule to know: Orange, green, and yellow clothing are not allowed on the facility grounds.

Attorneys visiting clients can either pre-schedule or walk in.

Steps to Follow

  • ✓ Pick a session time that fits the day you plan to visit: Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday sessions are 8:15 am, 9:30 am, 12:00 pm, 1:15 pm, and 2:30 pm.
  • ✓ If you are visiting on Thursday or Friday, choose one of these sessions: 12:15 pm, 1:30 pm, 4:30 pm, 5:30 pm, or 6:30 pm.
  • ✓ Arrive at least 15 minutes early so you can complete check-in.
  • ✓ Do not miss the check-in times. If you fail to make it during check-in, you forfeit the visit.
  • ✓ Dress with the color restriction in mind. Orange, green, and yellow clothing are prohibited on the facility grounds.
  • ✓ Plan around the visit length: you are afforded a minimum of one hour per session, and time starts when the incarcerated person enters the visiting room.
  • ✓ Attorneys: decide whether to pre-schedule or walk in, since either option is allowed.

Before you head out, confirm the session times are still current. Monday through Wednesday sessions are at 8:15 am, 9:30 am, 12:00 pm, 1:15 pm, and 2:30 pm. Thursday and Friday sessions run at 12:15 pm, 1:30 pm, 4:30 pm, 5:30 pm, and 6:30 pm. Schedules can change, so check the official posting or call ahead.

Ask about the exact check-in window for your session. You should arrive 15 minutes early, and missing check-in means you lose your visit. Be clear on what counts as "on time" for that day.

Double-check the full dress code before you go. Orange, green, and yellow are prohibited, but there may be other restrictions not listed here.

Attorneys should confirm whether pre-scheduling or walk-in is preferred that day. Both are allowed, but procedures can vary depending on current operations.

Also verify before you go: This guide doesn't cover visitor ID requirements, allowed personal items, parking details, fees, or exact check-in cutoff times for each session. Contact the facility directly for those specifics.
