How to send messages, photos, and packages
Staying in touch with someone at Yuba County Jail may look different right now. California is rolling out a single statewide communications provider for phone calls, video visits, and electronic messaging. Your best first step: create an account on the department's communications platform (website or mobile app) so you're ready when the jail goes live. Video visits and some messaging features typically require prepaid funding, so you may need to add money before scheduling paid services. During the transition, some jails remain on an older vendor, so confirm which system Yuba County Jail currently uses before purchasing credits. Standard audio calls may be handled differently than paid video or messaging. Review the platform details for any fees or free-call provisions.
