Before you leave home

Three things to confirm before the trip.

Youth visiting rules differ from the adult jail. Use this building’s phone and appointment process.

  1. 01Confirm housing

    Call this building first.

    There is no public youth roster. Call (707) 565-6300 and ask the unit. The adult Sheriff search will not show a youth here.

  2. 02Right campus

    7425 Rancho Los Guilicos, Dept. A — not Ventura Avenue.

    Juvenile Hall is Dept. A. Juvenile Services is Dept. B. Juvenile Justice courtrooms are on the same road. Adult MADF is 2777 Ventura. NCDF is 2254 Ordinance. Probation Camp is 7400 Steve Olson Lane, Forestville.

  3. 03Do not use adult vendors

    No Pigeonly, no inmatecanteen, no GettingOut.

    Those are adult-jail vendors. Youth mail, visits, and phones are this hall’s rules.

01 / Visiting

Sonoma County Juvenile Hall visiting hours.

Probation FAQ (checked 2026-09-12): visiting hours are based on the housing unit.

No GettingOut reservation. Check in during the unit window below. Do not use the adult-jail (707) 565-1400 visiting line.

Phone calls

How youth phone calls work

Hall (707) 565-6300. Urgent message to a youth: (707) 565-6300, option 9 (FAQ prefers visits, calls, and letters first). Probation FAQ: Juvenile Hall offers phone calls at no cost. Youth may call family and friends during leisure time in the day, plus additional evening time based on their level in the Behavior Management System. Do not use GettingOut. Call (707) 565-6300 rather than the adult jail (707) 565-1400. Health Services option 3. Electronic Monitoring option 2.

Money

Can families send money here?

Probation FAQ (checked 2026-09-12): “Can I put money on the books for a youth? No. Juvenile Hall provides the youth with what they need while in custody. Extra items can be earned through appropriate behavior within the Behavior Management System.” Do not use inmatecanteen.com, TouchPay, ViaPath, or GettingOut. There is no cost to the family for the stay (“My child is in custody, how much does Juvenile Hall cost me per day? There is no cost.”). Bail is not available for youth overseen in Juvenile Court; if a non-minor is here on an adult case only, bail may be a possibility — ask the hall.

This is not the adult jail deposit or commissary process. Do not send adult-inmate funds through a youth-campus workflow.

These details come from the official youth-campus pages. Rules can change; use the linked county pages when you need to act.

Intake

Who can be held at this hall

Official Juvenile Hall page (checked 2026-09-12): temporary, safe, secure detention for youth beyond normal community controls. Youth are here pending Juvenile Court hearings, serving short-term commitments, or awaiting out-of-home placement. Some youth apprehended by law enforcement are detained; others are released to parent/guardian based on a risk assessment. FAQ: if arrested and taken here, an Intake Probation Officer contacts the family; a Detention Hearing is two to three days later. Adult jail booking at MADF/NCDF is a different system.

Clear information.
Clear boundaries.

Jail411 is an independent information resource for families and friends. We are not a government agency, jail operator, law firm or live custody-records service.

Can Jail411 tell me if someone is in custody right now?

No. Jail411 does not hold live custody records. Use the official locator for the county, state, federal or ICE system that has the person; start here if you do not know which.

Does posting bond mean the person comes home?

Not always. A probation or parole hold, another county's warrant or an immigration detainer can keep someone in custody after bond is posted. Ask the jail what holds are on the booking before you pay.

What should I confirm before visiting?

The person's current facility, the visiting schedule, approval requirements, accepted identification and arrival instructions. Check the facility page and its official sources before you travel.

What if I find something that needs correcting?

Send us the page and the detail that needs attention. Include the official source when you have one. Do not send private booking documents or other sensitive personal information.
