How facilities are organized

The U.S. correctional system runs across three independent layers: the federal Bureau of Prisons (BOP), each state's Department of Corrections (DOC), and thousands of county sheriffs' offices that operate local jails. Visiting rules, money-deposit systems, and phone vendors are different at each layer — and often different again at each individual facility. InmateGuide lays each state out in the same format so you can compare quickly.

For each facility we list the parent agency, the documented visiting hours and approval process, mailing address format, current phone vendor (Securus, ViaPath/GTL, ICSolutions, or HomeWAV), and a direct link to the inmate-search tool that covers it. When a facility's policy is not publicly documented, we publish the agency-wide default and clearly mark it as such.
