Women's Huron Valley Correctional Facility Visitation Information, Instructions and Schedules
All facilities in the Michigan Department of Corrections allow both in-person and remote video visitation with inmates.
We will first lay out the instructions for in-person visitation:
Step 1 - Inmate's Responsibility
Each inmate must create a list of immediate family members, and no more than ten other friends who will be allowed to go through the approval process for visitation. A grandparent, parent, stepparent, spouse, mother-in-law, father-in-law, child, step-child, grandchild, sibling, half-sibling, stepbrother, and stepsister. An aunt or uncle may be included if adequate verification is provided that they served as a surrogate parent.
Step 2 - Application Process
Those persons the prisoner has placed on his/her visiting list must complete a Visiting Application (CAJ-103) to request approval to visit. The Visiting Application must be MAILED in advance to the facility Mailroom or Information Desk where the prisoner is currently housed to allow for review of the Application. You MUST include a self-addressed, stamped envelope so the approval/denial can be mailed back to you.
These are the mailing addresses for Women's Huron Valley Correctional Facility and the other 30 Michigan DOC prisons.
Step 3 - General Guidelines
It is recommended that while you are awaiting approval that you read and understand the visitation guidelines for this facility.
