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.

October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month (#DVAM) — and it’s also Cybersecurity Awareness Month. 💜
Everyone deserves to be safe online and when using any kind of technology. Telling victims of abuse to “just stay offline” isn’t reasonable or possible in our ever-connected world.
Tech-facilitated abuse can look like:
📍 Tracking someone’s location
🗣️ Harassing someone online
📱 Using smart devices to monitor or harass
⚠️ Using AI to generate fake sexual images
While the technology may evolve, the underlying abusive behaviors often remain the same: making choices to gain power and control over another person.
At the same time – technology is power. It can be used as a lifeline for survivors in need, helping them learn about abuse, reach out for help, document what they’re experiencing, and hold abusers accountable.
NNEDV’s Safety Net team is proud to address the intersection of tech and abuse, work with tech companies, and advance “safety by design” to make technology safer for survivors and for everyone.

Domestic violence (DV) is an ongoing pattern of behaviors and abusive tactics used by an intimate partner or ex-partner to gain complete power and control over a person’s life. Domestic violence can happen if you are married, living together, dating, or share children together. You can also experience domestic violence from an ex-partner if you are separated or divorced.
Domestic violence is not an isolated, single event, but rather a pattern of repeated behaviors and actions. It includes any and all of a person’s actions and behaviors that manipulate, humiliate, intimidate, isolate, frighten, hurt, or injure their partner.
If you feel you may be experiencing domestic violence, please reach out to your local DV survivor support organization. For Bismarck and surrounding areas, support is available 24/7 through our crisis line 1-866-341-7009
