The Virginia Department of Corrections (VADOC) and partners ViaPath and Assisting Families of Inmates (AFOI) have expanded video visitation at State Farm Work Center. The expansion took effect at approximately 9 a.m. Tuesday, June 25.

Every living area at the facility is now equipped with video visitation equipment, allowing inmates to conduct visits from their living areas.

Hours of operation for the general population will be 9 a.m. to 9:30 p.m., Monday through Friday, and 7 a.m. to 9:30 p.m. on weekends.
