Alternatively, Workhouse inmates may opt for a 45-minute non-contact visit on Wednesday at 6:30 a.m. Visitors should confirm the inmate’s assigned time by contacting the main jail directly, as sign-in is required by the start of the scheduled time.

Visitors at the main jail should adhere to specific rules to ensure a safe and orderly environment. Cell phones may be used in the lobby but are prohibited in the visitation booth, where all visits occur through a glass partition using a phone handset. Conversations may be recorded.

All visitors must present a valid photo ID, and anyone under the age of 18 must be accompanied by an adult. Cell phones, cameras, food, drink, and weapons are strictly prohibited. Visitors who appear under the influence or exhibit disruptive behavior will be asked to leave and may face arrest.
