Visitation

Social Visitation

To ensure that the proper safety and security measures are established and implemented, the Allegheny County Bureau of Corrections has established the following policy to be implemented related to social visitation at the facility:

Potential visitors must first register as an approved visitor either in person at the jail or by contacting:
412-350-2413
412-350-2035
412-350-2036

Potential visitors can then schedule visits online or by calling 855-208-7349.

All visits must be scheduled at least 48 hours in advance.

Incarcerated individuals housed on 8E and 1C will be approved for visitation on a case-by-case basis following previously outlined guidelines.

Incarcerated individuals from the following pods will need to visit on Level 1 and will need to be pre-approved: 5B, 5D, 5MC, 5MD. Any visits on Level 1 will be a maximum of two individuals using alternate visitation booths.

Pods 1C and 4A have incarcerated individuals isolated for COVID-19 protocol. Individuals cleared for work detail and assigned to those pods, and individuals who have completed isolation status on those pods may receive visitors. Visitors must call the morning of the assigned visitation day to schedule a visit rather than scheduling online.

All incoming adult visitors, including professional visitors, will be required to show identification to the visitation officers in the visitation lobby prior to the visit being approved.

Visitors must be checked in no later than 15 minutes prior to the scheduled visit time.

The person accompanying a child must present the child's birth certificate.

All staff and visitors may not wear these colors: lime green, neon green, neon yellow, or orange.
