Maintaining contact with friends and family is important for everyone’s health and wellbeing. Sadly, many prisons don’t make this easy. Phone charges of up to $14 a minute for long distance calls create a financial burden on inmates and the families who pay for these calls. A service from Globaltel helps avoid these additional charges by creating local phone number that an inmate can call that connects to your long-distance number. By eliminating the long-distance surcharge, inmates can talk to friends and family at the local rate no matter where they might live. You can set this up with Globaltel at Inmate Calls. To send mail to an inmate you can visit Jail Postcards.
Every jail or prison will have their own unique rules for inmate visitation. Every inmate is informed of these visitation rules and what days and times they are allowed to have visitors. The first step is to get set up with phone service so you can contact your inmate directly and get accurate information about prison visitation. Prisoners are often placed in city jail for pretrial detention. Then they may be transferred back to jail to serve short sentences after trial, or placed in a temporary facility while awaiting transfer to a longer-term prison facility.
