Wilkes Barre, PA Luzerne Day Reporting Center View
Luzerne Day Reporting Center in Wilkes Barre, Pennsylvania is a county community corrections and supervision facility associated with the Luzerne County criminal justice system. Day reporting centers generally are not traditional county jails and typically do not house people overnight. They may serve individuals ordered to report for supervision, treatment, testing, counseling, employment assistance, or other court-ordered programs as an alternative to incarceration or as part of probation, parole, or pretrial supervision. In Luzerne County, people who are physically incarcerated are generally held through the county correctional system rather than at a day reporting center. For custody status, housing location, and release information, use official county inmate search tools or contact the appropriate county corrections or court office.
Contact and Location Information
How to Find an Inmate at Luzerne Day Reporting Center
Public inmate rosters for county facilities typically list people currently in custody and may include the person’s name, booking date, charges, bond information, and custody status. Because the Luzerne Day Reporting Center is a reporting and supervision site rather than a standard jail, individuals assigned here may not appear as housed inmates at this location. After a person is booked into county custody, processing can take several hours, so records may not be searchable immediately. Use the official inmate search link available on this page for the facility’s roster or custody lookup, and check with Luzerne County corrections or court offices if the person does not appear.
FAQs
How do I visit an inmate at Luzerne Day Reporting Center?
The facility may not provide standard jail visitation if it operates as a day reporting or community supervision site. Contact the facility or county corrections office before traveling to confirm whether visits are allowed and how they are scheduled.
What do I need to bring when visiting Luzerne Day Reporting Center?
If visits are permitted, bring a valid government-issued photo ID and follow all check-in rules. Do not bring prohibited items, and confirm dress code, appointment, and security requirements in advance.
How do I make phone or video calls with an inmate?

How do I send mail to an inmate?
Mail should be sent only to the confirmed housing facility using the inmate’s full name and any required ID number. If the person is assigned here for reporting only, they may not receive inmate mail at this location.

Bail is set by a judge or magisterial district judge based on the case and the person’s court status. Bond is usually posted through the court, clerk, or jail process listed by Luzerne County, so confirm the correct payment location before going.
What happens during the intake process at Luzerne Day Reporting Center and when will the inmate appear in the system?
For a reporting center, intake may include orientation, supervision rules, program scheduling, testing, and referrals rather than jail booking. If the person was booked into custody, online records may take several hours to appear while processing is completed.
