How can I contact an inmate?
Email: You can contact an inmate through e-mail if you have an account with www.inmatecanteen.com and a valid email account.
Video Visit: You can video visit from your home if you have an account with www.inmatecanteen.com and the proper equipment.
Phone: If you call our office and request to talk to an inmate, we can NOT transfer calls back to their phones. By policy we can NOT give messages either. They have a separate phone system that they have access to where they can call out from. To call out they can either call collect or buy calling cards through the commissary system. Phone cards cannot be brought in from the outside; they will not work on the inmate phone system. Phone cards that are purchased through our commissary system can be used when they get out if there is time remaining on the card.
Mail: Most commonly an inmate will receive mail if someone would like to get a hold of them from the outside. Incoming mail to an inmate needs to be labeled as followed:
