Jefferson Parish Correctional Center Inmate Lookup

Jefferson Parish Correctional Center is the main local jail for Jefferson Parish, Louisiana, and the central place to look up inmates held after parish arrests. The facility serves a different role from a state prison, a federal prison, or a small police lockup. A Jefferson Parish Correctional Center inmate search usually begins with the sheriff's current roster, then moves to phone, public-records, court, or state locator channels when custody status has changed.

Jefferson Parish Correctional Center Overview

Jefferson Parish Correctional Center, commonly shortened to JPCC, is owned by Jefferson Parish Government and administered by the Jefferson Parish Sheriff's Office. JPSO describes the center as primarily a pretrial detainee prison, which means it holds many people whose criminal cases are still pending in court, people awaiting bond decisions or release processing, people held on attachments or warrants, and local prisoners held under parish authority when allowed by law.

The official facility location is 100 Dolhonde St., Gretna, LA 70053. The main correctional center phone is 504-736-6840, and the booking phone used for housing, CCN, dorm, and bed information is 504-368-5360. The public lobby hours published by JPSO are Monday through Friday, 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., closed holidays. Booking and intake operations are separate from lobby hours, so release, bond, and housing questions should be confirmed by phone before travel.

The official JPSO Jail and Corrections page publishes the JPCC address, phone, public hours, pretrial function, and capacity.

JPSO Jail and Corrections page for Jefferson Parish Correctional Center

That source is the anchor for basic JPCC facility facts, while the live roster and service pages provide the separate lookup, visitation, mail, money, and bond details.


Jefferson Parish Correctional Center Capacity and Population

JPSO lists JPCC capacity as 1,200, including the intake booking section. The same jail page characterizes the facility as primarily pretrial. The research reviewed on June 16, 2026 did not find an official current average daily population, annual booking count, gender breakdown, race breakdown, or felony and misdemeanor mix for JPCC, so the sourced population facts are capacity and function rather than a current headcount.

Jefferson Parish custody data can also be split by status. Someone held at JPCC may still have charges pending in the 24th Judicial District Court, while a sentenced person transferred to Louisiana Department of Public Safety and Corrections custody may disappear from the JPSO current-inmate search and need the state LAVNS/VINELink path. Court charges and court outcomes are tracked separately from jail roster charge rows.

How to Look Up an Inmate at Jefferson Parish Correctional Center

The correct first lookup path for JPCC is the JPSO Online Inmate Search. The public roster is free and no login was visible in the captured research. It is a current-inmate search tied to Jefferson Parish custody, not a statewide prison database and not a court docket. The roster supports searches by name, race, sex, arrest date, inmate CCN, and date of birth, and visible rows show name, CCN, race, sex, date of birth, arrest date, charge rows, and bond amounts or "No Bond Set."

  1. Open the JPSO Online Inmate Search and begin with the person's name, or use the inmate CCN if available.
  2. Narrow the result with race, sex, arrest date, or date of birth only when the name search returns too many rows.
  3. Read the visible result rows to confirm the person is a current Jefferson Parish inmate and to review listed charges and bond entries.
  4. Call booking at 504-368-5360 for housing, CCN, dorm, and bed details that are needed for mail, deposits, or facility-specific questions.
  5. If the person is not found, check Louisiana LAVNS/VINELink for parish jail, court, or state prison notification records, then use the Jail Inmate Records access chain for records requests and other custody systems.

JPSO's roster footer warns that information can change quickly and may not reflect the true charges, status, or other case information. Treat the roster as a custody and booking starting point. Filed charges, court minutes, dispositions, and later case events belong to court and clerk records after the jail arrest.


Jefferson Parish Correctional Center Address and Contact

JPCC contact questions should be routed by subject. Use the main correctional center number for facility contact, the booking number for housing and CCN details, and the public-records process for records not answered by the online roster. The jail address is the physical facility location; inmate mail uses the separate P.O. Box format listed in the mail section.

Visiting Someone at Jefferson Parish Correctional Center

JPCC visitation is video-based through NCIC and the Ally Telecom Group system. A free weekly visit is available at the off-site Visitation Center, not at the Dolhonde Street jail. The visitation center is at 2211 Barataria Blvd., Suite 110, Marrero, LA 70072, and JPSO notes free off-street parking. Remote video visits may also be made by computer, Android device, or Apple device after account setup and funding through NCIC.

Visitors should confirm the person's custody status through the roster or booking line before traveling. JPSO says the center closes during the middle of the day, publishes specific visiting blocks, and limits the free center visit to a maximum of three adults and three children. Remote visits are limited to three per day in addition to the weekly free center visit.

Mail, Phone, and Money at Jefferson Parish Correctional Center

JPCC mail must use the facility's inmate-mail format, not the street address alone. JPSO directs senders to include the inmate's name at the time of incarceration, CCN, dorm number, and cell or bed number if known. Housing and CCN information may be obtained by calling 504-368-5360. JPSO opens all mail to search for contraband, and prohibited items such as inmate-to-inmate mail, commissary items, tobacco, blank stationery, stamps, and envelopes are disposed of.

Money deposits use a different system from video visitation. Video and messaging use NCIC/Ally. Commissary money can be deposited through the intake booking lobby kiosk, Forecomm internet deposits, or mailed money orders. A CCN is required for deposits, so the booking line may be necessary before sending funds.

Bond and Release Information for JPCC Inmates

JPSO's bail-bond information explains that release may depend on the type of bond allowed in the case. Published bond options include cash, surety, property, and signature bonds when permitted by a judge. A roster row may list a dollar bond or "No Bond Set," but that row is not the same as a court order, a release guarantee, or a complete case history.

Bond questions should be checked against the roster, booking desk, and court status because new warrants, holds, attachments, probation matters, or court changes can prevent release even when one charge appears bondable. Court records after a jail arrest may show filed charges, minutes, judge information, future dates, and dispositions that the jail roster does not publish.


Booking and Intake at Jefferson Parish Correctional Center

JPCC includes the intake booking section within its published 1,200 capacity. People arrested in Jefferson Parish may be booked into the local custody system before appearing in court, bonding out, remaining held on a warrant or attachment, or being transferred under state or other authority. Louisiana booking law and JPSO practice make booking information useful for custody lookup, but a booking charge is not the final court charge or final disposition.

The current-inmate roster is the fastest public route for recent bookings. For written verification, JPSO also publishes a Letter of Incarceration request path and a GovQA Public Records Center. GovQA categories include criminal history/background check/booking photo, public records request, administrative public records request, NCIC attachment entry, and letter of incarceration request.


About Jefferson Parish Correctional Center

JPCC sits in the west bank criminal-justice cluster around Gretna, near the parish court and prosecutor geography that often follows a jail booking. The Jefferson Parish Sheriff's Office operates the jail, while the 24th Judicial District Court, Jefferson Parish Clerk of Court, and Jefferson Parish District Attorney handle the court records and prosecution records that may follow an arrest. That separation matters when a roster charge does not match a later filed charge or when the person has moved out of parish custody.

State-level oversight context also appears in the research. A January 12, 2024 Basic Jail Guidelines monitoring report was issued for JPCC inspection and reposted by Incarceration Transparency. That item supports the fact that JPCC is subject to Louisiana local-facility monitoring, but it does not provide a current average daily population. The facility's confirmed public-service details remain the roster, booking desk, video visitation, mail, commissary money, bond processing, and public-records channels.

Note: Confirm custody, housing, visitation availability, and bond status with JPCC or JPSO before traveling or sending money.
