How to Get Approved to Visit Someone at Debra K. Johnson Rehab Center (CR-2152 walkthrough)

You can't visit at Debra K. Johnson Rehab Center until your CR-2152 visitation application is approved. There's one narrow exception: immediate family members of newly committed inmates may be allowed to visit for up to 60 days from the inmate's intake date while the application is being processed. Once approved, you're not set forever. Visitor applications must be updated every 24 months, so plan ahead and revalidate on time to avoid a gap in visiting.

Step1 Fill All Sections

• ✓ Complete every section of the CR-2152, do not leave blanks
• ✓ Use a physical street address for your address (P.O. Boxes are not allowed)

Your CR-2152 must include a recent photograph, and placement matters. Attach the photo in the lower left-hand corner of the application. No photo means the application won't be processed, so don't mail it until the photo is secured in place.

If you're applying for a child to be on the visiting list, anyone age six and older needs a photograph attached to their visitor application. It must be a physical photo, not a photocopy. The facility also requires updated photos at ages 10, 12, 14, 16, and 18. Keep that in mind if your child is already approved and approaching one of those milestones.

1. Address the envelope to the right official: Use “Associate Warden of Security” (or “Deputy Superintendent”) on the envelope.
2. Include the facility name and address: Put the prison name and the prison address on the envelope so it routes correctly.
3. Mail the application to the facility, not to the offender: Forms mailed to the offender will not be accepted.

Once your CR-2152 is received, you'll go through an NCIC background check. Expect a decision within 30 days of receipt. Factor that timeline in when planning your first visit. Approval also needs ongoing maintenance. Applications must be updated every 24 months. If it's been close to two years since your last approval, submit an update before you plan travel.

Denied or Flagged

• ✓ Leaving sections incomplete on the CR-2152
• ✓ Listing a P.O. Box as your address
• ✓ Submitting false information (this results in disapproval and a minimum six-month wait before you can resubmit)

If your application is denied or held up and you're not sure why, start by reviewing your form for completeness, accuracy, and the required photo. If you need to resubmit later, make sure the next packet is fully filled out and matches your current information.
