Communication

Trying to stay in touch with someone at Stewart Detention? Here's what you need to know: detainees cannot receive incoming phone calls, so you can't reach them by calling the facility directly. The facility issues tablets and directs people to gettingout.com for sending non-confidential messages. For legal communication, Stewart uses a VAV (virtual attorney visit) platform for confidential attorney–client conversations—though this doesn't replace in-person meetings. Legal representatives may use outside interpretation services during virtual calls. Recording of any kind is prohibited: attorneys and staff cannot audio or video record virtual or in-person visits. Violations can lead to suspension or revocation of VAV privileges. Planning a video visit or messaging session? Set up and verify your vendor account first, and confirm your device and internet connection meet the requirements before scheduling.
