Yuma County Adult Detention Center

Yuma County Adult Detention Center switched to video-only visitation in 2020. The county allows unlimited video visits through Combined Public Communications / InmateSales—you'll find contact details and support hours on their site for setup, scheduling, and troubleshooting. The jail also uses Inmate Sales for electronic messages; friends and family can send emails through www.inmatesales.com or call the vendor during listed hours. Professional visits (attorneys, clergy, law enforcement, and program representatives) are scheduled Monday–Friday, 7:45 AM–5:00 PM, though the facility won't schedule them between 2:00–3:30 PM. Contact the Visitation Office using the phone number or email the facility provides to set up or confirm a professional visit.

Yuma County Adult Detention Center routes inmate phone calls, chirper (texting), and tablet services through Combined Public Communications (CPC). Set up and manage your account through the CPC/InmateSales website—the vendor offers a toll-free help line if you run into issues. For phone calls, you have two funding options: Direct Pay ties funds to one specific phone number, while PIN Debit adds money to the inmate's PIN account so they can call any number. Inmates can also receive email-style messages through InmateSales at www.inmatesales.com. Create and fund your vendor account first, then follow their verification, payment, and credit-purchase steps.

Yuma County Adult Detention Center routes all incoming inmate mail through TextBehind. Address your letter to TextBehind's P.O. Box in Highland Heights, KY and include the inmate's full name and jacket number—mail sent anywhere else gets returned. TextBehind scans letters and attachments for viewing on inmate tablets, then destroys the originals (including photos). The Detention Center won't accept items larger than standard letter size or paper thicker than light card stock. Attorneys should send legal mail in preprinted or pre-stamped envelopes (or with metered postage) without binding or stapling. Books and magazines can be purchased from reputable publishers and mailed directly to the Detention Center.

Adding money to someone's commissary account at Yuma County Adult Detention Center is usually quickest through Access Corrections—either online at www.accesscorrections.com or by phone at 866-345-1884 (bilingual agents available 24/7). If you're local, the Detention Center lobby kiosk accepts cash or debit/credit cards; prepaid cards and inmate-release debit cards won't work. Bring an email address, government-issued photo ID, and valid cell phone number for verification when using the kiosk. Prefer mail? Yuma accepts cashier's checks, tribal checks, and money orders addressed to Yuma County Detention Center Inmate Accounts, 200 W. Court Street, Yuma, AZ. Weekly commissary packages can be ordered through Access Securepak. Type the full Access Corrections URL to avoid scam sites—the county has warned about fraudulent lookalikes.
