Fresno Jail

The Fresno County Main Jail was founded in 1989. It houses a portion of the total Fresno jail population, which is a constantly changing number that typically amounts to approximately 2,400 inmates. If an individual is working with a Fresno bail bonds company, their stay in the jail might be shorter than those who are not.

The jail guarantees every inmate a bed, and its administration always adheres to its six pillars of character: trustworthiness, respect, fairness, caring, responsibility and citizenship.

The jail’s primary mission is to preserve public safety. While doing this, the institution also ensures that inmates receive the services they need. Inmates can receive medical services 24 hours a day, whether they require dental care, mental health services or general medical attention. The jail provides psychiatric services in the interest of crisis prevention for mentally ill inmates, and medications are provided when they are needed. Other services offered to inmates include life skills education, academic education, Narcotics and Alcoholics Anonymous meetings, religious services and library access.

Commissary Information

Fresno County Main Jail provides certain items to inmates who do not have commissary funds. This item list includes soap, a razor, toothpaste and select writing supplies. Funds can be added to an inmate’s commissary through TouchPay. $175 is the weekly limit for commissary purchases. Only inmates who have not broken jail rules are eligible for commissary. Commissary items sold here vary but may include hygiene supplies, certain medications, snacks and games.

Visiting Hours

The main jail’s visitation hours vary depending on inmate classifications and the needs of the facility. The visitor will need to inquire about any particular inmate’s visiting hours. Each inmate may only have two 30-minute visits per week, and these can only occur with visitors who are on the inmate’s approved list. All visitors must be at least 18 years old. The jail visitation dress code must be followed.

Phone Information

Callers can purchase a prepaid phone plan to stay in constant communication with their incarcerated loved ones. This plan is provided by Legacy Inmate Communications. A minimum payment of $15 is required for the phone plan, and it is rechargeable. Callers are asked to refrain from placing inmates on hold, attempting a three-way call or using call waiting. All of these actions are detected by the jail phone system and may result in the immediate termination of a call.

Mail Delivery

Mail can be sent to an inmate if it is properly formatted. All mail must contain the inmate’s booking number and his or her jail identification number. The following materials are not permitted in the mail: envelopes, stickers, stamps, stationery supplies, pornographic materials, newspapers, books and magazines. Acceptable mail items and materials include postcards, newspaper clippings in reasonable amounts and greeting cards. Every piece of mail is opened and searched for possible contraband.

Inmate Information Services

Anyone with questions about an inmate can contact the jail at 1-888-373-7011 for certain information. Information provided at this number includes whether or not someone is in custody, charges, bail amounts and dates of release. No information will be provided regarding inmate transport times to or from a different facility.
