Step 1 - The Application
Inmates are given copies of an application to visit when they arrive at their assigned facility. These are sent out to people the inmate wishes to receive visits from.
Inmates are allowed to have the following on their visitor's list:
- Spouse
- Children
- Mother, Father, Brothers, Sisters
- Step and Foster Parents
- Up to ten friends and associates - These include clergy, civic groups, employers, sponsors, parole advisors, attorneys and foreign officials from the consulate or embassy.
The inmate will mail each of these people a copy of the Visitor's Information Sheet to fill out and return.
Step 2 - The Visit
An inmate gets at least four hours of visiting time per month, but can sometimes get more if there is room to do so.
The FCI Florence - Satellite Prison Camp has visits on Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays; and at least one other day during the week. Weekends are the most popular time to visit so FCI Florence - Satellite Prison Camp may choose to limit visits to either Saturday or Sunday, based on the last name of your inmate. They will let you know.
Dress appropriately; professional, non revealing and non-gangster. Dress as if you are visiting someone's grandmother for the first time and you should be OK.
These are the VISITATION SCHEDULES for FCI Florence - Satellite Prison Camp and all of the other facilities in the BOP.
The visitor will return the completed form to the inmate and they will submit it. It takes a few weeks to get approved. If you are not approved, your inmate will let you know.
For new inmates who want a visit from immediate family, who can be verified by the information contained in the inmate's Pre-Sentence Report, they may be allowed to visit. However, if there is little or no information available about a person, visiting may be denied. Always call the prison ahead of time at 719-784-9100 to ensure your visit will be allowed.
What to Bring - How to Behave
Arrive for your visit with your photo ID, your car key, and some change for vending machines in a clear plastic purse.... nothing else.
If you have an infant, there will be guidelines on things you can bring into the visit... such as a clear bottle, blanket, etc.
You are allowed a handshake, or a brief kiss and a hug at the beginning and at the end of the visit.
Inmates in the FCI Florence - Satellite Prison Camp have a monitored prison phone system available for inmate use which allows inmates limited outbound telephone privileges from their housing units. These are limited not only by duration; 15 minutes each, but also by the total time each month.
Using this system, inmates may make outgoing calls to contacts on a pre-approved list of contacts, and can only make up to 300 minutes of prison phone calls each month. During the holiday months of November and December the Warden may increase this to 400 minutes of phone time.
Back-to-back calls are not allowed. Inmates must wait one hour from the start of their last prison phone call before they are able to place another phone call.
The pre-approved contacts are the same that are pre-approved for visits. This is the form that you must fill out and send back to the inmate. They will turn it in. Approval can take several weeks.
Inmates can make either direct-dial or collect telephone calls from federal prisons. When making a collect call, the recipient must agree to pay for the call. The cost for this is more expensive than a direct dial call. When making a direct-dial call, charges for the call are debited from the inmate’s trust fund account. You can make deposits by mailing in a money order to the lockbox, or depositing money with either Western Union or Moneygram. Refer to our FCI Florence - Satellite Prison Camp Inmate Money section (or scroll to the bottom of this section) on instructions.
Direct-dial telephone call costs are subject to change, but are currently as follows:
Local calls: $0.06/minute
U.S. long-distance calls: $0.21/minute
Calls to Canada: $0.35/minute
Calls to Mexico: $0.55/minute
Other international calls: $0.99/minute
NOTE: Collect calls carry connection fees of $0.06 to $0.38 each minute for local calls and $0.56 per minute when calling long distance.
How Many Phone Calls Can an Inmate Make a Day?
Prisoners may make more than one phone call each day if they are calling pre-approved phone numbers.
Jail phone hours can start as early as 6:00AM and extend as late as 11:30PM. During inmate 'work hours' and inmate's phone time may be limited.
Are Inmate Phone Calls Monitored?
Yes. Prison phone calls initiated by inmates are recorded, AND are monitored. Police and prosecutors would have the right to review recordings of an inmate's phone calls under certain circumstances, such as if they were subpoened.
Prison phone calls by inmates placed to their lawyers, however, are not recorded or monitored.
There are three ways to deposit money in an inmate's phone (trust) account in the Federal Bureau of Prisons.
In order to do any of these you need to know the exact name the inmate is incarcerated under, and their Inmate ID# (aka Register Number)

The Federal Bureau of Prisons (BOP) is the agency responsible for overseeing and incarcerating pre-trial (indicted) and post-trial (convicted) inmates. Federal inmates differ from those in county jails and state prisons because the crime they are either being accused of or have been convicted of violates specific federal laws.
The Federal Bureau of Prisons has many different types of facilities that incarcerate inmates. That is because they deal with such a wide range of inmate types, from non-violent Wall Street tycoons serving a few years in a ‘Camp’ with no fences, to the most dangerous and deadly serial murderers who are only allowed to leave their cells and go into a small exercise cage for one hour per day.
When referring to a federal prison, you always place the acronym of the prison ‘type’ in front of the name (or location) of the prison. For example, USP Allenwood is a United States Penitentiary in Allenwood, Pennsylvania. US Penitentiaries are always either medium or maximum-security facilities. They house the most violent, and in many cases, the longest-term prisoners in the BOP. The only exception is the ADX (or ADMAX), a Supermax prison in Florence, Colorado that houses the ‘worst of the worst’ prisoners such as the late John Gotti, the Unabomber, serial killers who cannot mix with other inmates, and other incorrigibles such as convicted terrorists.
Federal Correctional Institutions (FCI), are classified as both medium and low-security facilities. The lowest security facilities, Prison Camps (FPC and SCP), allow for freedom of movement on the entire prison grounds outside of the security walls and razor wire. Prison Camp inmates handle much of the maintenance and upkeep of the complex. Americans have often heard these referred to as ‘Club Fed’, due to the fact that they are thought of as much less restrictive than a regular prison.
In addition to the standard lockups, the BOP maintains many Maximum-Security Detention Centers (FDC, MDC and MCC), Medical Facilities (FMC and MCFP), privately owned Correctional Institutions (CI), Con-Air Prisoner Transfer Centers (FTC) and Female Facilities (SFF).
Prior to an inmate’s release from the custody of the BOP, they will first transition into a Residential Reentry Center (RRM). Inmates in the ‘halfway houses’ are required to take responsibility for the cooking, cleaning and upkeep and by working a full-time job to subsidize the cost of the facility. After their release from a BOP facility, every federal inmate must undergo several years of supervised release (probation) before they can experience the real freedom we all enjoy.
This facility, known as "FCI Florence - Satellite Prison Camp" is also known as Minimum Security, Federal Bureau of Prisons, BOP, FLORENCE FPC, Colorado,.
