Important Update: New Communication Option for Incarcerated Individuals at MCF-Red Wing:

Incarcerated people at MCF-Red Wing have each been provided with a Viapath wireless personal tablet, creating a new way to communicate with friends and family. 

To stay in touch, friends and family can create and fund their own personal account* in three ways:

  • Online: www.GettingOut.com
  • Mobile App: “GTL Getting Out”
  • Automated Phone: (866) 516-0115

*Friends and family can only fund their own messaging account. An incarcerated person can fun his/her media account on a weekly basis for tablet time and sending messages.

MCF-Red Wing has a 45-bed adult minimum security unit. The men at MCF-Red Wing are transitioning from prison back into the community through work and programming. They learn trades working with plumbers, carpenters, and electricians. They can become certified in boiler, skid loader and forklift operations. The facility also has community-based employment through the Institution Community Work Crews (ICWC) and Sentence to Service (STS) programs. They learn lawn care, construction, building maintenance and recycling operations. The facility also has a garden where 75% of the produce is donated to the area food shelf - the rest is used at the facility.
