Youth Services Center allows inmates access to tablets to use for the services provided by 'gettingout'.

  • Music
  • Books
  • Games
  • Education
  • News
  • Radio
  • Television
  • Read mail and messages
  • Video visits

-  Free services are already available for use on the device at Youth Services Center.
-  Subscription services are funded separately by family and friends with deposits made into an inmate’s Debit Link account.
-  Youth Services Center Inmates will then be able to purchase subscription services and premium content to enjoy.
