Tangipahoa Transitional Work Program Overview
Louisiana DPS&C lists Tangipahoa Transitional Work Program as "Tangipahoa Transitional Work Program (NC)" on the Tangipahoa Parish local jail and program page. The NC label and local-program placement matter. The program is a work-release or transitional custody setting connected to local jail and DPS&C supervision, not a full state prison with a separate prison-style facility page.
The address published in research is P.O. Box 141, 101 Campo Lane, Amite, LA 70422. That places the program at the same Campo Lane jail complex used by Tangipahoa Parish Jail. DPS&C lists Robert Vittitoe as director and gives the phone as (985) 748-3392 with fax (985) 747-8024. No separate official public capacity figure was located for the work program.
The DPS&C Tangipahoa Parish location page is the official source that groups the work program with local jails and parish justice offices.
The state listing helps confirm that the work program belongs in the local custody map for Tangipahoa Parish, even when a person must also be checked through state locator tools.
Tangipahoa Work Program Custody
The work program population is different from a standard pretrial jail population. Work-release and transitional programs generally hold eligible participants who are approved for structured work or reentry activity while still under correctional supervision. For Tangipahoa Parish, the research supports a narrower statement: the program serves eligible work-release or transitional participants under local jail and DPS&C program supervision. It does not support a public count, daily population, gender split, or bed capacity for this specific program.
| Custody Point | What It Means | Lookup Impact |
|---|---|---|
| Work-release setting | Participant may be in a structured transitional program. | Do not assume a new arrest roster tells the whole story. |
| Local program listing | DPS&C places it on the parish local jail/program page. | Start locally, then use state custody tools if needed. |
| Campo Lane complex | Program address ties to the parish jail area. | Confirm visit, mail, and payment rules before using jail rules. |
| No capacity located | No official separate bed count was found. | Avoid treating parish jail capacity as program capacity. |
Tangipahoa Work Program Lookup
There is no separate public Tangipahoa Transitional Work Program roster in the research. The practical chain begins with the Tangipahoa Parish Jail roster because local custody and some program participants may be routed through the parish jail system. If the person is state sentenced, under DOC status, or no longer appears in the local roster, use DPS&C offender information and Louisiana VINELink.
- Search the TPSO jail roster by name and compare date of birth and booking details.
- Open the profile, if present, and check for DOC, parole, hold, or work-program context.
- Search DPS&C/LAVNS by name, location, or ID/case number for sentenced state custody.
- Call DPS&C phone locator access at 225-383-4580 with a DPS&C number or name and date of birth.
- Call the local program or jail contact before relying on a transfer or release assumption.
DPS&C states the LAVNS/VINE path is updated every 24 hours. That state timing is different from a local jail roster, so a same-day transfer, work-program move, or local hold may require a phone check.
Tangipahoa Work Program Contact
The official contact information for the program is brief. DPS&C's parish page lists the program name, address, phone, fax, and director. The program is connected to the Campo Lane jail complex, so callers with custody, visit, or mail questions should be clear that they are asking about Tangipahoa Transitional Work Program, not just the main jail roster or a new booking at Tangipahoa Parish Jail.

Tangipahoa Work Program Visits
No separate public visitation schedule for Tangipahoa Transitional Work Program was located. The main parish jail has published visitation rules, but the research does not support applying that schedule to the work program without confirmation. Work-release and transitional programs may have different movement, job-site, eligibility, and disciplinary rules than the main jail. A family member should call the program or TPSO before traveling.
| Visit Question | Current Public Finding | Best Action |
|---|---|---|
| Separate schedule | Not located in official sources | Call before travel |
| Authorized visitor list | Not confirmed for the program | Ask the program contact |
| Main jail schedule | Exists for Tangipahoa Parish Jail | Do not assume it applies |
| DOC or state custody status | May affect visit rules | Check DPS&C/LAVNS and call |
If staff direct a visitor to the parish jail rules, follow the arrival, dress code, and authorized-list requirements given by TPSO. Until that is confirmed for the person and program status, treat the work program as a separate visit question.
Tangipahoa Work Program Mail
No separate official mail, phone, video, or money-deposit rule set was located for the Tangipahoa Transitional Work Program. TPSO publishes TouchPay deposit rules for Tangipahoa Parish Jail, including online, phone, and kiosk deposits, but those rules are documented for the jail. A person in a transitional program may still have an account route through the local jail system, yet that should be verified before sending money or mail.
| Service | Status for Work Program |
|---|---|
| Mail address | P.O. Box 141 and 101 Campo Lane are listed, but inmate mail format was not separately published. |
| Phone or video | No separate official vendor rules located. |
| Money deposits | Confirm whether jail TouchPay rules apply before paying. |
| State custody account | Use DPS&C guidance if the person has moved fully into state custody. |
A safe question for staff is: "Is this person assigned to Tangipahoa Transitional Work Program, and which mail or deposit format should be used for that assignment?" That phrasing avoids mixing the work program with the main jail, the sheriff's Hammond office, or a state prison.
Tangipahoa Work Program Intake
The program is not a street-arrest booking point in the way a city jail or the parish jail is. A person normally reaches a work-release or transitional setting after an eligibility decision, custody classification, or sentence-related placement. Classification is the custody review that decides whether a person can be housed in a particular setting. Work release means custody continues, but approved activity may occur outside a locked housing unit under program rules.
For a recent arrest, start with the parish jail roster rather than the work program. For a sentenced person, check DPS&C/LAVNS. Louisiana also houses some state prisoners in local jails, so a DOC status does not always mean the person has left Tangipahoa Parish. That is why both local and state lookup routes matter for this program.
Tangipahoa Work Program Context
The work program is part of the local custody map around Campo Lane. It gives Tangipahoa Parish a program category beyond the main jail and the Amite municipal holding facility. No official source reviewed gave a separate public program history, annual population, application criteria, job placement list, or discipline manual for the program, so custody explanations should stay within confirmed facts.
People often move between custody labels. A person can be booked into Tangipahoa Parish Jail, later treated as a DOC prisoner, and then searched through state locator tools while still having local contact points. For a broader custody count and facility comparison, the Tangipahoa Parish inmate population page explains how the parish jail, work program, and municipal holding facility fit together.
Note: Confirm work-program assignment, visits, mail, and deposits before using main jail rules.
