Hi Sammy,
As far as i know all prisons have these visits.. The inmate has to be eligible and married. No lifers can have these family visits. Although I hope that changes someday!
My son is in Chuckawalla - but is being moved to Avenal State Prison - can anyone tell me anything about the prison how many books can I send him - do they have long lines to get into the visits.. ?? Thanks I am so glad they are moving him he has been in ASU for almost 6 mo (he was beaten up - placed him there for his protection)
What I know from past experience is that conjugal visits are possible with Husband/Wife, Brothers/Sisters, Mothers/Fathers and inmates children. They are with immediate family members only an the rules have changed "any inmate with violence of any kind" are not elgible. That really sucks becuz I have been on them with my brother and took his daughter so they could get to know each other. Well 25 years later he is still being denied Parole and isnt any closer to knowing his daughter or his Grand-Children. Ask me any question you want he has been in every institution in California except Pelican Bay an I dont know how he pulled that one off but he did.
*Its not wanting something we cant have...its keeping something we have!!*
my husband is at Salinas Valley and they do have conjugal visits if you are eligible. My husband and I are about 1 month away from our first one!!!YYYEEEE HHHAAAAAAA

As far as violence of any kind, that's not a blanket rule... there was a bill this year that would block ALL "violent" offenders but it never made it our of assembly. But they do need to be out of Close Custody.
I have experience with family visiting at Mule Creek and would be glad to help with any info you need or questions you have.
Everything I've seen here, I know to be correct. Restricions on who qualifies are many. One that hasn't been noted much is domestic violence. Even if it wasn't you, and even if he wan't convicted of it, disqualifies him for life. Even if you are his mother.

My husband and I are on the Inmate Family Council at CSAFT Corcoran - we are trying to build up the council. Right now there are only 6 of us on the concil we need 10 to establish a quorum. If anyone is interested when you
visit the prison, go to the desk and ask them to give you a application. Please send me notice, that you have done this, the prison does not want us to astablish the quorum. I have heard - talking to the visitors, that they said it is full - THIS IS NOT TRUE. -
THIS IS DIRECTLY FROM THE PRISON
According to the by-laws, we are supposed to have a 14 member council and 7 alternates. Due to absences and other vacancies, we have a total of 6 members. The officers are elected by a majority vote and this shall occur once a year in November. A majority vote consists of 10 members. Once we establish a full quorum of members, we will have an election.

I know someone who may be interested. She visits her son in Corcoran as often as she can when they are not on Lockdown. can you pm me some more info about it or e-mail me at msnacy1 and that is on yahoo. Can post the whole e-mail cause of the rules. She doesnt have a computer so I have to relay the info. Thanks
Can anyone tell me how I can find information on the web about my uncle who is in Wasco State Prison. I need to find out what the charges are and what else, if anything, is pending. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I have searched the various search engines but have not been able to come up with anything that does not cost.
