How to send messages, photos, and packages

Overview

Communication options at Tehama County Jail may be affected by California's transition to a new statewide provider for phone calls, video visits, and electronic messaging. Standard audio calls from institution phones and tablets are reported as free. Video visits and electronic messaging usually require you to set up an account on the department's communications platform (on the web or in the mobile app) and may need prepaid funds. To get ready, create your account, register for the video service the facility supports, and add money through the app's prepaid feature if needed. Since the change is rolling out in stages, some sites may still be on an older vendor platform. Use whatever system the facility currently supports and keep an eye out for facility or department announcements about timing and next steps.
