Please check availability through the Ameelio app. For in-person visits, the number of visits allowed per visiting week are subject to change. Currently incarcerated individuals are limited to one visit per week. The visiting week is Friday through Monday. For questions about the Ameelio app or assistance in trouble shooting, contact iowasupport@ameelio.org . For questions specifically about your loved one’s visit, email ISPinfo@iowa.gov or call (319) 376-4850.

*Reminder: Per department visitation policy, all visitors upon entrance to the institutions shall be subject to search. Security and contraband control are critical operational requirements, necessitating a search of all visitors by trained correctional staff. Searches may include, but are not limited to, a pat down, metal detectors, electronic ion scanners, other electronic devices, or visual searches. If visitors refuse to comply with the department visitation policy, entrance to the visiting room will be denied.
