South Dakota Prison Communication Directory

South Dakota operates its state prison system through the South Dakota Department of Corrections (SDDOC). Securus Technologies handles phone calls at South Dakota state correctional facilities including the South Dakota State Penitentiary in Sioux Falls and the Mike Durfee State Prison in Springfield. Contact Securus at 800-844-6591 or visit securustech.net to set up an account. South Dakota is not among the states that offer free phone calls at state prisons. The SDDOC number is required for all communication accounts and mail.

Use the SDDOC offender search at doc.sd.gov to find the SDDOC number and current facility. JPay handles money deposits to South Dakota inmate trust accounts. South Dakota county jails use their own phone vendors independently from SDDOC state facilities. Pennington County Jail in Rapid City and Minnehaha County Jail in Sioux Falls each use their own contracted providers. Always confirm the specific provider for each county facility before setting up any account.

South Dakota has a relatively small prison population. All non-privileged calls are monitored and recorded. Three-way calling is prohibited. Visitor applications at SDDOC facilities require background checks and take several weeks. For federal inmates in South Dakota including those at FCI Yankton, use CorrLinks for messaging and ConnectNetwork for calls which are separate federal systems.
