Southeast Correctional Center

Southeast Correctional Center follows the Missouri DOC visiting process. Start by completing a visiting application that includes the offender's DOC ID, then wait for case-manager approval (which usually involves background checks) before trying to schedule anything. Once approved, you'll typically schedule visits through the facility's system. Scheduling in advance may be required, and there are limits on visit frequency and length. On visit day, bring a government-issued photo ID and expect screening at check-in, such as metal detectors or other security checks. Follow staff directions closely. Even small issues can lead to a canceled visit. Parking and entry rules matter too: don't remain in vehicles on institutional grounds, and arrive within the lot-entry window (generally no earlier than 30 minutes before visits start). If you need medication or medical supplies during the visit, notify the case manager ahead of time and let staff know when you arrive.

Communication at Southeast Correctional Center runs through a vendor system. Securus handles phone and video services (securustech.net, 800-844-6591, customerservice@securustech.net). Offenders can only make outgoing calls using a personal identification number (PIN). Incoming calls are not accepted, and all calls are monitored. Depending on the setup, calls may be billed as collect, debit, prepaid, or placed through tablet phone apps. Debit minutes can be purchased through commissary or a kiosk, and families can also fund accounts to cover calling costs. For deposits and payment questions, contact the Offender Finance Office at 573-526-6445. Mailed deposits are normally completed within 1 to 3 business days. For remote video or messaging, expect to register with the vendor and complete any required identity verification.
