To schedule a visit at Larry D. Smith Correctional Facility, call 951-922-7540 between 9:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. You'll need to book at least one day before your intended visit date. If you have a specific day in mind, try calling earlier in that window to avoid any last-minute scramble.

Info Ready

  • A valid government-issued photo ID for each visitor
  • The specific inmate you are signing up to visit (you cannot switch or trade inmates with another visitor)
  • The visiting scheduling phone number and calling window: 951-922-7540, 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.

Keep the visitor limits in mind when planning. Larry D. Smith Correctional Facility allows a maximum of two visitors per inmate for each visit. There's also a weekly cap. Inmates can receive a maximum of two visits per week. If the person you're visiting has already used both, you'll need to wait until the following week.

Planning tip: Each visit runs approximately 45 minutes, so plan your travel and arrival around a short window.

For attorney or special visits, contact the facility where the inmate is housed to schedule directly. If you're arranging something outside regular social visitation, ask what documentation or approvals they need ahead of time so you don't show up unprepared.

Need to change plans? Don't try to swap your visit to a different inmate or trade with another visitor. You're only allowed to visit the specific inmate you signed up for. If you booked the wrong person, cancel and reschedule for the correct inmate.
