How to Contact an Inmate at Facility
Here are the main ways to stay in touch with someone at Tehama County Jail, including video visits, adding funds, and ordering commissary.
Video visitation at Tehama County Jail runs through ICSolutions. When you create your account, make sure to select "Tehama County Jail, CA" as the agency so your setup and scheduling connect to the right facility.
For regular visitation, inmates get one 30-minute visit twice per week. Inmate workers may receive one 60-minute visit twice weekly, but only when time and space allow. The facility also offers unlimited legal or confidential visits seven days a week from 7:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m. These are available for attorneys, probation/parole officers, medical or mental health staff, and approved clergy.
Want to help with day-to-day needs? You can add money to an inmate account by phone, online, or at a kiosk located at Tehama County Jail. You can also skip the deposit and place an online commissary order instead, which lets you provide items directly.
