Adams County Jail Visiting Hours in Corning: How Visits Are Booked

Booking a Video Visit at the Adams County Jail

Visits with someone held at 901 Davis Avenue in Corning are video sessions run by Reliance Telephone. Step one is a free account on Reliance's Adams County Jail page or in the Reliance Connect app, with the inmate added and the visitor approved. Reliance's own record for this jail has online self-scheduling switched off, so instead of picking from a calendar, the approved visitor is connected during the visiting slot Corning jailers assign to the inmate's housing unit. Calls placed from home through Reliance Connect are billed at 42 cents a minute.

Length, ID and Rules for Corning Visits

• Sessions at Iowa county jails typically run 15 to 30 minutes, and Reliance can cut one short when the slot ends.
• Corning video sessions are watched and saved by Reliance, which drops any visitor who behaves improperly.
• As at most Iowa county jails, a Corning visitor's Reliance profile typically has to match the name on that person's photo ID, and anyone under 18 joins alongside a parent or guardian.
