Mail, photos, messaging, and phone/call options for staying in touch.
Inmates at Walker County Sheriff's Office can make outbound phone calls from 9:00 AM to 11:00 PM. The facility doesn't accept incoming calls—the person in custody has to place the call. Calls typically last about 15 minutes, may be monitored, and can disconnect after a warning. Three-way calling isn't allowed. Video visits are also available through NCIC, scheduled in 20-minute increments. To use video or other electronic services, create an account with the facility's approved communications vendor, add funds if needed, and schedule through their system. For at-home video visits, you'll need a webcam-equipped device, a microphone, and stable internet. Keep in mind that calls and messages are typically monitored under vendor and facility rules.
