Visiting at Helena Prerelease Center
Procedure and Approval to Visit
Persons wishing to visit residents must complete a visitation form and pass a background check. Forms are available on-line, from center staff, or the resident can mail one to them. Completed forms need to be returned by mail with a copy of the visitor's picture ID to:
Helena Prerelease Center
805 Colleen St.
Helena, MT 59601
All visitors who wish to take residents in their vehicles must provide a copy of their valid Driver's License, Vehicle Insurance and Registration.
Residents of HPRC are on strict agenda. When they leave the facility, they have a specific destination with a reasonable amount of time to arrive at that destination, and authorization to be with specific people. Any deviation from their stated agenda and/or association with unauthorized people will result in a disciplinary action. Residents are responsible for adhering to their agenda. Any person who takes a resident out of the center must understand that the resident’s agenda must be the first concern. HPRC can require at any time during a resident’s leave that they report immediately back to the center.
