New Lisbon Visiting Hours and When to Arrive (Avoid Being Turned Away)
New Lisbon Correctional Institution (NLCI) offers visiting Tuesday through Sunday, with different hours depending on the day. Tuesday through Friday, visits run from 2:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. and last up to 3 hours. On weekends, hours are 8:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. with a 2-hour limit. Planning around work or childcare? Think of weekdays as late afternoon and evening slots, weekends as morning through mid-afternoon. Keep the visit-length cap in mind too—showing up late eats into your time, and arriving too close to the end of visiting hours can get you turned away entirely.

Visitation
New Lisbon Corrections Institution (NLCI) publishes specific daily visiting hours and designated visit lengths. Confirm the schedule before you plan a trip.

A few property rules to know: pets aren't allowed (except service animals), vehicles left longer than 48 hours may be towed, and staff can deny entry or end a visit for inappropriate clothing if no changing option is available.

New Lisbon Corrections Institution (NLCI) uses ICSolutions tablets for inmate messaging. To send messages and photos, create a Getting Out account at www.gettingout.com, then follow the vendor's steps for setting up contacts and purchasing credits. ICSolutions is also testing options to fund phone accounts for messaging, so the way you add money or apply credits for calls and texts may change. Across Wisconsin, phone calls, tablet messaging, email, and video visits all run through third-party vendors, and communications are monitored. People in custody generally place outgoing calls rather than receiving incoming ones. If something isn't working, double-check your vendor account status and the current options in Getting Out. Procedures and availability can shift as the statewide rollout continues.

Many Wisconsin facilities offer more than one deposit option: online deposit portals, phone deposits, lobby kiosks, walk-in cash locations, or mailed money orders.

Confirm fees and processing times before you send money.
