Hospitality Houses
For families traveling long distances to visit loved ones in TDCJ custody, hospitality houses can offer a place to rest, prepare, and feel supported before or after a unit visit.
The locations below may provide lodging, meals, visitation support, transportation guidance, or a safe place to connect with others who understand the experience. Availability, eligibility, and services vary by location, so we recommend contacting each hospitality house directly before making travel plans.
Explore our list of Hospitality Houses below.
