Visitation with Inmates at SCI Camp Hill

There are many different types of ways that one might be able to visit with an inmate that they have a connection with. There are advantages to each type of visit including:

In-Person Visit	This is the most intimate and perhaps most beneficial way of visiting an inmate. However, scheduling an in-person visit is more cumbersome than the other options. You will need to be extremely diligent in scheduling your visit with an inmate.
Video Visit	A video visit brings an extra element of personalization to the visit without having to physically go to the facility. This method may be highly useful for those who live a long distance from the facility where their loved one is held.
Phone Call	This type of meeting with an inmate is the easiest to set up and may be allowed more frequently than other methods.
