1. Incarcerated Individuals can have one (1) visit per day.
2. Only two (2) visitors per visit.
3. Visitors will only be allowed to visit once every 30 days, except at MCA. If you are scheduling a visit at MCA within a 14-day period, you will need to contact the Visitation Coordinator to schedule your visit.

5. Visitors will be allowed to bring in $30 in change to purchase up to three (3) items from the vending machines for the incarcerated individual to take back to their housing unit at the end of the visit. No food will be consumed in the visitation room, and visitors cannot purchase food items for themselves. We recommend bringing in your own quarters as the onsite change machine is known to break down frequently.
