Clatsop County Juvenile Detention Center Remote Inmate Video Visits
Schedule a Video Visit with an Inmate at the Clatsop County Juvenile Detention Center - Remotely or at the Jail
The Clatsop County Juvenile Detention Center believes in the importance of their inmates having an opportunity to have visits from family and friends. When an inmate is released he or she needs to return home, and closeness to their family is one of the strongest reasons that keeps them from getting in trouble again.
One way that Clatsop County Juvenile Detention Center is able to accomplish this is with Securus remote video visitation. Remote visiting allows loved ones to use their phone or computer to connect directly with their inmate via a video kiosk in the jail or using tablets, all in a joint effort between the facility and Securus.
The benefits of video visitation are:
- It keeps inmates happy.
- Allows the inmates to stay in touch with friends, family and children.
- It saves on staff time, thus money.
- Allows the jail to partake in a revenue share.
- Keeps viruses from spreading.
- Keeps contraband from entering the facility.

Securus Video Connect allows families to conduct scheduled face-to-face video visits with incarcerated loved ones from home. Using a computer with a webcam or the Securus mobile app, visitors can join live video sessions without traveling to the facility or waiting in jail visitor lobbies.
Important: Advance Registration and Visitor Clearance Required
Detention centers do not permit unscheduled or unverified video sessions. Correctional facilities require prospective visitors to submit government-issued photo identification and receive administrative clearance before booking an appointment, an approval process that can take up to 48 hours depending on facility staffing. You should verify your visitor approval status with the facility prior to scheduling. If you do not register well in advance, you will miss your loved one's scheduled visiting window for the week.
Step-by-Step Instructions to Register and Schedule a Video Visit
- Visit securustech.online or open the Securus mobile app.
- Register your account and upload a clear photograph of your government-issued ID (driver's license or passport) for facility background review.

- Log into the website or app 10 minutes prior to the start time on a device with a functioning camera, microphone, and reliable high-speed internet connection.
What the Inmate Needs to Do
The inmate receives an alert on their housing unit video kiosk or personal tablet. At the scheduled time, they log in with their PIN and sit in front of the terminal. Inmates and visitors must strictly observe jail dress and conduct rules; sessions are monitored by staff and will terminate immediately upon any violation.

What is a video visit, and how do they work?
Video visitation, also known as remote visitation, is quickly becoming the preferred method for visiting an inmate in jail or prison for the following reasons:
• It requires little to no staff, versus the staff required to move inmates to and from the visit and watch over the visit. It saves the Clatsop County Juvenile Detention Center money.
• It removes any opportunity for contraband (drugs) to enter the facility.
• It can become a profit center for the facility, given that the revenue generated by visits is shared with the jail.
• While inmates prefer to see family and friends in person, video visitation allows them to visit with them more often, and on a whim.
• Video visitation gives the inmates and their visitors the feeling of more privacy.
Securus Video visitation from the perspective of the visitor allows them to visit from their home, their car, at work, and even allows them to take their device to a family or religious gathering. It allows them to give their inmate the feeling of belonging and not being forgotten.
Video visitation can take place on a computer, a tablet or a phone.
Video visitation saves time. Instead of spending hours driving to the jail, checking in, filling out paperwork, potentially being searched, waiting, and then having a 15–30-minute visit, if it isn’t cancelled at the last minute, the visit can be done from anywhere during a short break in the visitor’s day.
If the visitor does not have access to a phone or computer, they can make an appointment ahead of time and use terminals in the lobby of the jail.
You must also be on the inmate's approved list, even for a Securus video visit.
