Riverbend Women's Division Overview
Louisiana DPS&C lists a separate Riverbend Detention Center female facility at 9482 Highway 65 S, Lake Providence, LA 71254, with the same main Riverbend phone number, 318-559-5980. The East Carroll sheriff's public roster is not a separate women's-division roster. It is a parish/Riverbend table that includes gender as one sortable field. That distinction matters because a roster row may prove that a female prisoner appears in the East Carroll feed, but it does not prove the exact building, housing unit, or visit eligibility without a facility call.
The women's division is best understood as part of the Riverbend detention operation rather than as an independently documented jail with its own published capacity table. The 2023 PREA audit gave Riverbend's overall rated capacity as 1,560 beds and described a facility holding male and female prisoners, but official sources reviewed did not break out a separate bed count for the female division. Do not use Riverbend's total capacity as a women's-only capacity.
Riverbend Women's Division Capacity and Population
No official source reviewed published a separate capacity for the Riverbend Detention Center - Women's Division. The sourced capacity number is the Riverbend-wide 1,560 rated capacity from the 2023 PREA audit. A June 16, 2026 inspection of the East Carroll roster feed found 25 female rows out of 1,429 total rows, with 1,067 unreleased or current rows across the entire feed. That gender snapshot helps explain scale, but it is not a facility census for the women's division because the roster does not contain a building or housing-unit column.
How to Look Up an Inmate at Riverbend Women's Division
Start with the official East Carroll Parish inmate roster. Use the Name column or the A through Z letter filters, then sort or read the Gender column to identify female rows. The table also shows Race, Date of Birth, Transferred In, Transferred From, Released, and Transferred To. It does not provide a profile page, mugshot, charge list, bond, court date, or a Riverbend female-facility filter.
- Open the East Carroll roster and note the last-updated line before relying on a result.
- Search by last name or browse the Name column, then verify the Gender field.
- Read Released and Transferred To to see whether the row appears current or no longer active.
- Call 318-559-5980 and ask whether the person is housed at the women's division, another Riverbend unit, East Carroll Detention Center, or another agency.
For sentenced Louisiana prisoners, use DPS&C offender information and VINELink Louisiana alongside the roster. DPS&C publishes an automated phone option at 225-383-4580 and says callers need either the DPS&C number or the person's name and date of birth. If the East Carroll roster row says the prisoner was transferred from another parish, the sending parish may control the criminal case, bond, or booking photo.
Riverbend Women's Division Address and Contact
The women's division address appears separately in DPS&C's facility listings. Use the Riverbend phone number for custody placement and visit questions, especially because the public roster does not display a women's-division facility field.

Visiting Someone at Riverbend Women's Division
The sheriff's official video visitation path is the East Carroll video visitation page, which links to City Tele Coin. A separate women's division schedule, in-person visitation calendar, visit length, dress code, visitor approval process, and lobby rule list were not located in official East Carroll pages reviewed. Because female housing is listed separately by DPS&C but not separated in the roster, a visitor should confirm the exact facility and current visit status by phone before creating a vendor account or traveling.
| Visit Topic | Published Detail | What to Confirm |
|---|---|---|
| Video visitation | City Tele Coin is linked through the East Carroll sheriff site. | Account setup, schedule, rates, and whether the inmate is available for video visits. |
| Women's division schedule | Not published in official pages reviewed. | Days, hours, visit length, and whether visits differ from the main Riverbend facility. |
| Visitor rules | Local dress code and ID rules not published. | Photo ID, approval list, minor visitors, banned items, and clothing rules. |
| Accessibility or special needs | No public entry guide located. | Accessible parking, entry, medication rules, and accommodations before arrival. |
Mail, Phone, and Money at Riverbend Women's Division
The documented East Carroll service channels are Tiger Commissary / Tiger Deposits for commissary and money deposits and City Tele Coin for video visitation. Official East Carroll pages reviewed did not publish a women's-division mail format, envelope rule, publication rule, phone-rate schedule, commissary limit, or deposit fee table. The facility should confirm whether mail should use the 9482 Highway 65 S female facility address, the main Riverbend address, or a required inmate-mail processing format.
| Service | Provider / Detail | Local Limit |
|---|---|---|
| Mail Address | Riverbend Detention Center - Women's Division, 9482 Highway 65 S, Lake Providence, LA 71254. | Exact inmate mail format not published, confirm before mailing. |
| Phone / Video | City Tele Coin, linked by the East Carroll sheriff video visitation page. | Phone rates and visit schedule not published in the sheriff page reviewed. |
| Money Deposit | Tiger Commissary / Tiger Deposits, linked by the sheriff commissary page. | Fees, limits, and kiosk or phone-deposit options not published locally. |
Booking and Intake at Riverbend Women's Division
Women who appear in the East Carroll roster may have entered custody through a local arrest, a transfer from another Louisiana parish, a state-prison housing arrangement, or another agency hold. The public table's Transferred In and Transferred From fields are therefore central to understanding the row. A blank Released column suggests the row appeared current in the feed at the time viewed, but the facility should still confirm current custody because public data can lag and because the roster includes released rows in the same feed.
The roster's limits are especially important for female custody searches. It publishes gender but does not say whether a woman is at the women's division address, a different Riverbend unit, East Carroll Detention Center, or temporarily out for court or medical transport. It also does not show the booking charge, bond amount, court date, mugshot, or housing classification. A caller should be ready with the person's full name, date of birth, approximate transfer date, and any sending parish listed in the Transferred From column.
About Riverbend Detention Center - Women's Division
The separate female facility listing gives searchers a useful address, but most operational detail remains Riverbend-wide. The 2023 PREA audit treated Riverbend as the main facility and reported a rated capacity of 1,560, an average daily population of 1,083, minimum through maximum custody levels, 194 staff, 25 volunteers, and one contractor. It also found all 45 PREA standards met. Those Riverbend-wide facts can inform a women's-division lookup, but they do not create a separate women's housing count or schedule.
Female rows in the June 2026 roster feed represented a small portion of the total rows inspected. That does not mean the women's division had only that number of people in the building at all times, because roster snapshots can change and facility placement is not published by building. The most reliable chain is roster first, Riverbend phone second, DPS&C/VINELink for sentenced prisoners, and the originating parish if the row shows a transfer source outside East Carroll Parish.
Note: Confirm women's division placement by phone before visiting, sending mail, or making a deposit tied to a specific housing location.
