Family Video & Voice Calls

In May 2024, the Elkhart County Juvenile Detention Center replaced their existing, outdated phone system with Ameelio’s video and voice communication platform. Ameelio provides 10 minutes of calls a day for the 30 residents at Elkhart County Juvenile Detention Center. Ameelio video and voice calls are easy to use for the kids and their families, while convenient to manage for supervisors at the Center.

Ameelio Learn: Learning Management System

Elkhart County is leading the way in revolutionizing juvenile justice education. In May 2024, the juvenile detention center launched Ameelio Learn, a canvas-based Learning Management System that provides the kids with a custom-built pack of courses.

Tablet

While Ameelio’s software can work on any hardware, including existing facility-owned computers and tablets, we also provide facilities the option to purchase Ameelio’s proprietary ruggedized tablets. Elkhart County Juvenile Detention Center has deployed Ameelio tablets inside its facility, enabling their kids to easily access educational resources and call their families.

White quotes

Ameelio worked with our juvenile detention center to develop a platform for residents to have secure contact with their families, while also complying with PREA’s requirement for a truly anonymous way to report incidents. Ameelio customized the platform to fit our needs and did so expeditiously. Our system is live now, and we are very pleased with the benefits to our residents and their families.

White quotes

Ameelio provided the Iowa Department of Corrections with a secure platform that was easy for our incarcerated individuals, families, and our staff to use. Their training and support while deploying the system to all nine facilities were instrumental to the success. The feedback we continuously get from families, Incarcerated Individuals, and staff proves that Ameelio was the right choice!

White quotes

I love this app and when I was in Loudon Co jail, I told all my fellow inmates about it. It truly makes a huge difference in your day behind bars when you get mail and it boosts your confidence knowing the world may keep on spinning without you but that there is at least someone that notices your absence and misses you.

White quotes

Ameelio's video calling platform is so easy to use — it's going to save us COs an abundance of time, make our work more efficient, and get our prison population reconnected with their families at no cost.
