VISITS

General Provisions: While visiting is a privilege, inmates and detainees are encouraged to maintain close contact with family members and those who can assist in rehabilitation. General Controls and Limitations: Each facility shall implement established policies and procedures to administer visitation. Size, mission, location, and other variables shall dictate the limitations and controls necessary in each facility. Admission and Control: Only those persons who have made a formal application and have been approved by the Prison Security Administrator (Warden) shall have their names placed on the visiting list. All persons eligible to visit with a prisoner shall complete all documents required for admission into the facility. Contact and non-contact visits are to be conducted in designated areas under the supervision of Corrections employees to maintain good order. The Director may determine the degree of supervision required. At no time shall visitors be allowed to deliver and/or receive any letter or article to/from a prisoner not approved by the Director. The number of visitors to a prisoner may be limited to prevent overcrowding in the visiting room. However, such limitations should be interpreted flexibly and subject to exceptions.
