Trust fund deposits for Rockport prisoners go through Access Corrections, linked on the county jail page as "Send Inmate Money," and the current inmates list has a "Trust Fund" button beside each name. Choose Texas, then the Aransas County Detention Center, then the inmate by name and booking number. Access Corrections' customer line is 866-345-1884.

How the Trust Fund Works in the Rockport Jail
Cash is taken out of circulation at the Rockport jail: each prisoner has a trust fund that covers store purchases, and Access Corrections credits family deposits straight to it.
