Logansport Juvenile Correctional Facility Overview
Logansport Juvenile Correctional Facility is operated by the Indiana Department of Correction, Division of Youth Services. The 2025 PREA audit identifies it as a juvenile facility in Logansport with male youth residents and custody levels 1 through 3. It should not be described as the Cass County Jail, a county booking facility, or an adult pretrial roster site. Its records, visitation, mail, phone, and money rules come from IDOC and facility-specific procedures, not from the Cass County Sheriff's Office jail page.
IDOC's youth system is built around rehabilitation and return to the community, and IDOC says its Division of Youth Services oversees three juvenile facilities statewide. The Logansport facility is physically in Cass County, but a local arrest in Cass County does not automatically mean the person is held there. A newly arrested adult should be checked through Cass County Jail, while a person already in state youth custody should be checked through IDOC records or IDOC-approved contacts.
The IDOC national reports page is the official source path for the PREA audit material used for facility capacity and population context.
That report library is relevant because the public facility figures come from the IDOC audit materials, not from a county jail roster.
Logansport Juvenile Correctional Facility Capacity and Population
The 2025 PREA audit for Logansport Juvenile Correctional Facility gives the most specific facility statistics in the research set. The final report was dated July 8, 2025, with an on-site audit on June 5 and June 6, 2025. It listed designed capacity as 198, current population as 129, and average daily population for the prior 12 months as 142. The same audit reported that the facility had not been over capacity during the prior 12 months.
The audit described the population designation as men/boys, with an age range of 12 to 20 and custody/security levels 1 through 3. It also listed 186 staff with resident contact, 27 contractors with resident contact, and 46 volunteers with resident contact. These numbers are specific to the IDOC youth facility and should not be used as Cass County Jail population figures.
How to Look Up a Resident at Logansport Juvenile Correctional Facility
The correct starting point is IDOC, not the Cass County Jail phone line and not the county's absent adult roster. The IDOC incarcerated locator searches by last name, first and last name, or DOC number and shows state-custody results when public data is available. For youth custody, public detail can be more limited because juvenile records and resident information may be confidential or restricted by law, court order, IDOC policy, or safety concerns.
- Search the IDOC incarcerated locator by DOC number if known, or by last name with first name to narrow results.
- Review the facility/location field before assuming the person is at Logansport Juvenile Correctional Facility.
- If the public locator does not answer the question, use IDOC records or facility contacts rather than the Cass County adult jail roster.
- For court-related youth matters, expect confidentiality limits and confirm the proper route with the responsible court, attorney, parent or guardian contact, or IDOC.
IDOC's offender-records request process is the state-custody records fallback. The research file notes that incomplete forms or requests without the required authorization release form may not be processed. Requests may be mailed to IDOC Offender Records Request, 302 W. Washington Street, Room E-334, Indianapolis, IN 46204, or emailed to coaoffenderrecordrequest@idoc.in.gov with the name and DOC number in the subject line.
Logansport Juvenile Correctional Facility Address and Contact
The facility's public address and phone come from IDOC and the 2025 audit materials. The audit identified Mike Minthorn as administrator and listed facility-related contacts including PREA Compliance Manager Ulises Sosa Garcia and Natalie Marshall. IDOC's public information officer page separately listed Logansport Juvenile Correctional Facility PIO Natalie McConahay Marshall with an extension. For routine resident-specific questions, callers should expect IDOC to verify whether information can be released before sharing details.

IDOC Division of Youth Services facility; public visitation schedule is facility-specific.
Visiting Someone at Logansport Juvenile Correctional Facility
Facility-specific public visitation hours for Logansport Juvenile Correctional Facility were not located in a standalone official public page during the research pass. IDOC's statewide visitation rules still matter. Visitors must register through ViaPath and be approved before scheduling in-person or online visits. Available dates and times are controlled by the facility's schedule, space, personnel, security needs, and approved visitor list. ViaPath scheduling is done in Eastern Time.
IDOC rules also require visitors to submit to search of person and property. Refusal results in denial of the visit. Visitors age 16 and older must present picture identification each time. Video visitors must be on the approved visitation list, and video visits are subject to the same rules as regular visits. Violations can lead to suspension, including longer penalties for repeat video-visitation violations.
| Step | Timing | Type |
|---|---|---|
| Register | Before any visit | ViaPath account and approval required |
| Visitor list | Maintained by facility; updated at least twice yearly | Resident-approved visitor list |
| Schedule | Available times are facility-specific | In-person or video when approved |
| Identification | Each visit for visitors 16 and older | Accepted picture ID required |
| Search | At entry or visit processing | Person and property search required |
Mail, Phone, and Money at Logansport Juvenile Correctional Facility
IDOC mail guidance says mail requires the incarcerated individual's name, DOC number, and the facility address. Do not use the Cass County Jail mail-processing address for Logansport Juvenile Correctional Facility. IDOC phone guidance says incarcerated individuals may use collect, prepaid collect, or inmate debit calls, and approved contacts must be on the incarcerated person's call list. Blocking options are available through the phone provider process.
IDOC money accounts are separate from Cass County Jail's HomeWAV and JailFunds setup. IDOC identifies ViaPath and ConnectNetwork products for trust fund deposits, prepaid calling, PIN debit, Debit Link, digital correspondence, and video visitation. Commissary purchases use funds in the resident's account, and IDOC's commissary guidance also describes enhanced commissary ordering and restrictions around religious-property purchases.

Intake and Classification at Logansport Juvenile Correctional Facility
Logansport Juvenile Correctional Facility does not function like a street-arrest booking desk for Cass County adults. Youth residents reach IDOC youth custody through court and correctional placement processes, then are managed under IDOC Division of Youth Services rules. The audit's custody levels 1 through 3 indicate facility classification and supervision structure, not a county jail bond status. A resident's public locator information, if available, may show IDOC custody data rather than local arrest charges.
Because juvenile matters can involve sealed, confidential, or restricted records, public access should be handled carefully. Do not assume that an absence from a public search means the youth is not in custody. Do not expect MyCase, Cass County Jail, or a mugshot gallery to provide routine public details for a youth resident. Appropriate contacts may include IDOC, the responsible court or attorney, and approved parent or guardian channels.
About Logansport Juvenile Correctional Facility
The 2025 PREA audit gives a detailed snapshot of the facility's operations. It identified the facility type as juvenile, the population designation as male youth, and the designed capacity and population figures listed above. It also listed contact and staffing details, including staff, contractor, and volunteer contact counts. IDOC's broader youth-services description says juvenile facilities are intended to manage risk levels while focusing on rehabilitation and preparing youth to return to their communities.
The practical records caveat is simple: this facility is in Cass County geographically, but it is not a Cass County Sheriff's Office jail facility. County jail rules for HomeWAV visits, JailFunds commissary, San Antonio mail processing, and adult local custody do not apply to Logansport Juvenile unless IDOC separately adopts a similar vendor or procedure. Use IDOC visitation, ViaPath, IDOC mail, IDOC money, IDOC records, and facility contact channels for this page's custody type.
Note: Confirm approval, resident eligibility, and facility-specific visiting times with IDOC before traveling.
