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.

Yesterday was a reminder that one of the most important investments we can make is in our people. We spent time focusing on communication, self-awareness, and self-care—skills that strengthen not only our workplace, but also our ability to support survivors and our community.
We shared plenty of laughs, enjoyed good food, and had the opportunity to connect in ways that don’t always happen during a busy workday. By learning more about each other and building stronger relationships, we are creating a team that is more resilient, compassionate, and effective. I am grateful for each person who makes this work possible and proud of the commitment our team continues to show to both personal and professional growth.
Special thanks to Jill McDonald, Executive Director of Minot’s Domestic Violence Crisis Center and Lisa Gusewelle, Executive Director of McLean County Resource Center for facilitating sessions yesterday! We were also very happy to welcome the team from MFRC to spend the day with us as well!
I appreciate everyone that was present yesterday and also those that put time and energy into making this happen!
-Michelle, Executive Director
