In-person visits at Big Apple lockups will resume next week — and family members can start reserving time slots beginning Monday, according to the city Department of Correction.
“This is a happy occasion, and as normal services resume we expect it to have a very positive impact on the safety and wellbeing of everyone who lives and works in our facilities,” said DOC Commissioner Vincent Schiraldi.
Visits at city jails, which have been nixed since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, will start up again on June 25, according to the DOC.
During the initial launch, family members will be allowed to see inmates on Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays.
Visitors will have to practice social distancing, wear masks, undergo temperature checks and complete a self-screen for COVID-19.
The DOC said it strongly encourages people to sign up for visits ahead of time.
“Due to high-demand and social distancing requirements, drop-in visits will only be allowed in the unlikely event that there is space in the schedule,” the agency said.
Religious services also resumed Monday in city jails.
