About Us

The mission of the Abused Adult Resource Center is to assist victims of domestic violence and sexual assault by establishing and maintaining a program which will provide temporary shelter, crisis intervention, prevention, education, support and hope as a vision to eliminate violence.

The Abused Adult Resource Center (AARC) has been helping survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault for more than 40 years. Serving south central North Dakota, we provide emergency support, crisis intervention, temporary shelter, food, counseling, and advocacy to survivors of domestic violence, sexual assault, and human trafficking.

Our goal is to help our clients and their families find hope through a life free from abuse. We also enjoy working with our communities to create an awareness and sensitivity to domestic violence and sexual assault issues, establishing programs that aim to break the cycle of abuse.

AARC received our award letter from United Way and we were granted 50% less this year for our emergency shelter, Pam’s House, which equates to a $25,000 loss.

Our emergency shelter and transitional shelter, sheltered 153 families with 118 children in 2022. All of those families had experienced domestic violence, sexual assault, human trafficking or a combination of those crimes. At our shelters, families receive 1:1 case management, food, hygiene supplies, transportation assistance, access to employment and education programming, support groups and many other services. We do not ask our residents to pay anything to stay with us and we do not have a maximum time that they can stay. In total, we provided 11,004 nights of safe shelter.

We are reaching out to our community to let you know that if you are interested in donating to AARC directly to help us make up that dollar amount, you can do that here: www.abusedadultresourcecenter.com/donate/.

We appreciate the community’s ongoing support!
