  What This Means For Your Incarcerated Loved One

  All visits have been suspended. Regular phone and video visit privileges will continue as normal.

  AN IMPORTANT MESSAGE FOR VISITORS

  To prevent the potential for COVID-19 (coronavirus) exposure, the Illinois Department of Corrections, after consultation with the Illinois Department of Public Health, is temporarily suspending all visits effective March 14 until further notice. We recognize the importance of visitation as an essential component of rehabilitation, family connection and quality of life for those in our care. Our top priority is the health and safety of those who live and work in our facilities, and we are hopeful this policy change will be short-lived.
