All in-person social visits are to be scheduled at least 24 hours in advance by you with your Housing Unit Officer. It is your responsibility to contact family and friends regarding time and date of visits. You are allowed up to two (2) in-person visits within any continuous seven (7) day period and no more than one (1) inperson visit per day. Each in-person visiting period is forty (40) minutes long. Due to space limitations, an acceptable combination of visitors may include: (2) adults; (2) adults and (1) child; or (1) adult and (2) children. In-person social visiting hours are as follows: 8:00 am - 8:40 am 2:00 pm - 2:40 pm 9:00 am - 9:40 am 3:00 pm - 3:40 pm 10:00 am - 10:40 am 4:00 pm - 4:40 pm 1:00 pm - 1:40 pm Visitors arriving after a scheduled in-person visiting period has begun will not be allowed to visit during that scheduled period. Therefore, you should advise your visitors to arrive early to allow for visitor processing. In-person visiting periods will begin promptly on the hour. Late arrivals may be allowed to visit at a later period only if space is available and at Housing Unit Officer's discretion. Visiting periods will not be split. Visitors must be properly attired at all times. Visitors wearing short shorts, low-cut blouses, mini-skirts, transparent or sheer clothing will not be allowed to visit. Male visitors must wear shirts with sleeves. Footwear is mandatory. Certain restrictions apply to those who may visit in-person. 1. Visitors must be 18 years of age or older, or accompanied by an adult. 2. Visitors must have a valid State/government issued identification, which has a photograph. The following are acceptable: driver's license, Missouri State ID, Military ID, or passport. Persons without a photo ID will not be admitted. 3. Visitors must wear appropriate clothing. Low-cut blouses, mini-skirts, shorts and transparent or sheer clothing are strictly prohibited. 4. Male visitors must wear shirts with sleeves. No "muscle shirts" allowed. 5. Footwear is mandatory. 6. Smoking, eating or drinking is prohibited in the visiting area. All social visitation conversations are recorded whether they are in-person or via video. All in-person visitors must secure ALL personal property in the lockers located in the lobby area. No purses, bags, pencils, pens, markers, lighters, cigarettes, cell phones, cameras, radios, or electronic recording devices may be taken to the floors during resident visits. No photographs may be taken during resident visits. Visitors that violate these rules will immediately forfeit their visit. Visitors that violate these rules may also be placed on the facility's no admit list and not allowed to attend any future social visits with residents. Visitors will be required to pass a metal detector screening prior to entering the elevator to the visiting booths. If it is found that any prohibited property is in the visitors possession at that time, the visit will be forfeited and the visitor may be placed on the no admit list. In the event a visitor wants to deposit money into your resident account, they may do so at the kiosk located in the lobby of the building. In the event the kiosk machine is not working, visitors may proceed to the Bonding/Cashier window in order to deposit money into resident accounts. If a resident is placed on lockdown and has a previously scheduled visit, it will be determined on a case-by-case basis if the visit will be allowed. The decision will be made based on resident behavior at the discretion of the Housing Unit Officer/Unit Supervisor. If the visit is allowed, the amount of time the visit takes will be added onto the end of the scheduled lockdown time.
