How do I visit a prisoner if I am a clergy member?

The clergy member may simply visit during the prisoner's regular visiting hours, so they may need to call the facility to determine visiting hours - or they can be pre-approved by the warden to visit during non-visiting hours.

 

When s/he approaches the front desk, s/he will need picture ID as well as documentation of his/her clergy status.  That documentation varies from faith group to faith group.  This may be a letter of appointment to the congregation as their pastor, or a copy of an ordination certificate or clergy license.  Some simply use church literature that identifies the person as the pastor of the church. etc.
