Visiting Rules
Visiting an inmate is highly encouraged, as visits help inmates cope with life in prison. Hearing news of the outside world and seeing loved ones will help motivate inmates to have good behavior, as well as make reintegration into society smoother.

Once you pass the background check, you will be added to your inmate’s approved visitor list. Approval can take anywhere between 20 and 45 days. Children under 18 may visit inmates with a guardian.
Visiting schedules vary between institution and regularly scheduled visits are subject to change based on inmate behavior or other factors. Check with your inmate’s housing unit before visiting for the schedule.
During the visit at Lee Correctional Institution, inmates and visitors should remain calm, seated and quiet. Physical contact beyond a quick hug, kiss or handshake is not permitted. Visitors will not be allowed to re-enter the visit if they leave for the restroom or any other reason.
