How many times a day can an inmate call his family members? Or do they have specific days?
Ruth Avila
The general rule is the phones are on at 6am and off at 9:30, seven days a week.

The general rule is the phones are on at 6am and off at 9:30, seven days a week. Times vary but this is a very good example. Some inmates may have telephone restrictions for disciplinary reasons which would limit usage altogether. Inmates must have money on their account or have a loved one set up a pre-paid account with a carrier. The inmate may dial out during those times and the amount of the call is debited from the account.
