Join NDDSVC and our members on February 14th as we connect with legislators at our Advocacy Day at the Capitol!
The coalition and some of our member organizations will be setting up booths in Memorial Hall to provide information on domestic violence and sexual assault victim services in North Dakota. Come visit to learn more about what we do and how we’re advocating for survivors this session.
We will also be facilitating the In Her Shoes activity, an interactive simulation that walks you through the experiences of a victim of domestic violence. Participants are given a card describing the background and current situation of a victim/survivor and then make choices about their character’s next steps. The activity takes about 15 minutes to complete and can help you understand the complex dynamics and challenges that victims in North Dakota face.
The Silent Witness Exhibit, a display made up of red silhouettes that honor women and children who were murdered in acts of domestic violence will be available for viewing. The Clothesline Project, an exhibit of shirts made by victims and survivors in North Dakota, will also be on display.
We hope to see you there!

The North Dakota Domestic and Sexual Violence Coalition (NDDSVC) commissioned a Needs Assessment project to examine how survivors of domestic violence with co-occurring behavioral health issues are supported across North Dakota. Survivors and advocates alike reported that the prevalence and severity of these intersecting issues are increasing, yet the state’s current service and response systems remain insufficient to meet the complexity of survivors’ needs.
