“Visitation is a crucial part of the reentry journey,” said Director Walters. “It is so important for members of the population to maintain and build relationships with their loved ones, which strengthens family bonds and makes a smoother transition to society when they are released. Also, the additional tables put VADOC back at pre-COVID-19 visitation capacity, making it easier for loved ones to stay connected.”
