Statewide rules that apply at every Oklahoma DOC prison

These rules are set by Oklahoma DOC and apply at every unit. The full list — including all permitted and prohibited items and the approval process — is in Visiting in Oklahoma.

Dress code

Dress modestly and follow the approved-attire list — no revealing, transparent, or provocative clothing, nothing resembling what incarcerated people or staff wear, and no gang-related items; each facility may turn away a visitor who is dressed out of code, so confirm the rules before traveling.
Leave personal items in the vehicle — visitors may bring only identification, a car key, and coins for the vending machines; phones and other electronic devices are not allowed inside.

ID: Every visitor must be approved on the incarcerated person's list before visiting — submit a Visitor Application Form (online or by mail to the Visitation Unit, P.O. Box 11400, Oklahoma City, OK 73136-0400) and pass a background check (ages 18 and older); approval can take up to 90 days. Bring a government-issued photo ID to each visit.
What to bring: Bring only identification, a car key, and coins for vending — phones, bags, and other personal items are not permitted in the visiting room. Money for the person's trust account is sent through JPay, never handed over at a visit.
Scheduling: All visits are scheduled in advance through the statewide Visitation Unit (405-768-3269) — there are no walk-ins, and requests must be received by Wednesday at 1 p.m. for that period. Saturday and Sunday visiting is available at every facility (additional weekdays vary), generally 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Men enter the system through the Lexington Assessment and Reception Center; women through the Mabel Bassett Correctional Center.

Overview

Dr. Eddie Warrior Correctional Center (EWCC), on N. Oak Street in Taft, Muskogee County, is a minimum-security state prison for women in eastern Oklahoma, west of Muskogee. It is one of two women’s prisons in the Oklahoma DOC system — the other is Mabel Bassett Correctional Center in McLoud, which serves as the women’s reception center. Eddie Warrior is one of the largest minimum-security facilities for women in the country.

What Makes Dr. Eddie Warrior Correctional Center Different

It is a large minimum-custody women’s prison — one of the largest minimum-security women’s facilities in the country.
It shares the town of Taft with a men’s prison. Jess Dunn Correctional Center, a minimum-security prison for men, is also in Taft, Muskogee County. The two are separate facilities; families should confirm the person’s facility on the Offender Lookup (Eddie Warrior holds women; Jess Dunn holds men).

Mail

Oklahoma DOC routes incoming personal mail through an off-site digital vendor. As of September 1, 2024, letters and photos are mailed to the Securus Digital Mail Center in Dallas, where they are scanned and delivered to the inmate as a digital color image on a Securus tablet or kiosk — the original is not delivered. Inmates without device access get a free black-and-white printout. Address personal mail with the person’s full name and ODOC number exactly as:

Inmate’s Full Name + ODOC Number Securus Digital Mail Center - Okla. Dept. of Corrections P.O. Box 223566 Dallas, TX 75222-3566

Illegible or incorrectly addressed mail may be returned or delayed. Legal mail and special correspondence are not sent to the digital center — they go directly to the facility and are handled under the rules for privileged mail. Publications (magazines, newspapers, books) also go to the facility and must come directly from the publisher or an approved vendor. Packages cannot be sent to the digital mail center and must go to the facility. Full rules are in Mail in Oklahoma.
