There are FOUR options for putting money on an inmate's books:
Option 1 - Dropping Money at the San Luis Obispo County Honor Farm
Bring money to the jail in person.
Either the jail personnel will process the Inmate Account payment or you will use the NCIC self-serve kiosk in the lobbies that accepts cash, debit or credit cards.
Option 2 - Deposit Inmate Money Online
San Luis Obispo County Honor Farm uses NCIC to process all online deposits to an inmate's account. NCIC charges you a small fee for doing so, but the fee probably isn't as much as gas and parking would cost to take it to the jail in person.

Make the Money Order out to the inmate's name and put their Inmate ID# in memo section of the Money Order. Mail it to the San Luis Obispo County Honor Farm address on this page, or to the address below if it is different than the facility address.
