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.

You are warmly invit

April is more than just another month; it’s a time to stand together, speak up, and support survivors.

We’re proud to share that Governor Armstrong has officially proclaimed April 2026 as Sexual Assault Awareness & Prevention Month. This proclamation reinforces a powerful message: prevention matters, survivors matter, and our communities must continue working together to end sexual violence.

Sexual Assault Awareness Month (SAAM) is about education, advocacy, and action. It’s about believing survivors, breaking the silence, and creating safer spaces for everyone.

At the Abused Adult Resource Center, we are committed every day to supporting survivors and raising awareness; but this month, we ask our community to stand with us even louder.

💙 Wear teal
💙 Start conversations
💙 Support survivors
💙 Be part of the change

Together, we can build a future where everyone feels safe, heard, and respected.
