Adult Detention Center

PERSONAL VISITS WITH INMATES

Inmates are allowed one (1) non-contact visit per week. These visits will be done through video visitation only. The length of visits is as follows:

• Maximum custody – 20 minutes
• Medium/Minimum custody – 30 minutes
• Inside/outside workers – 60 minutes

Each inmate establishes a list of up to six visitors depending on privilege level, which can only be changed every 4 months. This list must be established before a visitor is able to conduct visitation.

Visitors will need to go online and register for visitation at the following website http://princewilliamva.gtlvisitme.com  On the website during registration the visitor will need to select which inmate(s) they wish to visit. Detention Center staff will approve/deny requests based upon the list that is submitted by the inmate. Once approved the visitor will be able to schedule visits. When space is available, a second non-contact visit for the week may be purchased and scheduled for a nominal fee.

On the scheduled visitation day all visitors will need to be here at least 15 minutes prior to the start time of the visit to complete the check-in process. At this time a valid photo identification is required. A parent or legal guardian must accompany children under the age of 18. Juveniles in high school are asked to bring school ID with them. Emancipated juveniles must show proof of emancipation. Those under the age of 18 who are married to an inmate are not required to be accompanied by an adult, but proof of marriage must be shown.

**If an inmate is on Work Release, the visitor will need to contact Work Release to find out about their visitation schedule**
