How to send messages, photos, and packages

Overview

Sumter County Detention Center uses Securus Video Connect, a web-based video system that lets family members, attorneys, and officials schedule and join video sessions with an incarcerated person from anywhere with internet access. The same Securus platform supports electronic messaging, too. You can send messages, share photos, and deliver eCards for birthdays and holidays. One testimonial on the Securus site reports remote video visits lasting about 35 minutes, with some users saying that's longer than typical onsite visits. Check the vendor portal to confirm the current session length and any limits. Because a third-party vendor handles account setup, scheduling, billing, and tech support, you'll need to create an account, complete any required identity verification steps, and be on the person's approved visitor or contact list before you can book.
