Visiting at Orange Correctional Center takes some planning. In-person visits are appointment only, so you'll need to call or email the facility to schedule, then call again the day before to confirm everything is still on. Before booking anything, make sure the incarcerated person has added you to their approved visitor list and that your completed visitor application has been approved by staff. Visits have limits: offenders are normally allowed one visit per week, up to two hours, with a maximum of three approved visitors per session.
