Abstract
Scheduling and provisioning transportation by a controlled-environment facility resident may employ a controlled-environment facility resident communication and/or media device, which requests and accepts identification information, from a controlled-environment facility resident operating the device, and verifies the identification information. The device then presents a controlled-environment facility transportation interface, via which the device accepts input or selection of a date and time from the resident for pick-up of a party and a destination of the party. The device may then interface with a transportation provider computer system, or the like, and schedule the pick-up of the party at the input or selected date and time for transportation to the destination. The transportation is paid for from one or more controlled-environment facility trust accounts maintained by the controlled-environment facility to the benefit of the controlled-environment facility resident.
