Our latest resource, the North Dakota Domestic & Sexual Violence Court Resource Guide, is a product of the North Dakota Court System in collaboration with the North Dakota Domestic & Sexual Violence Coalition (NDDSVC). The guide is a revised version of the 2013 edition of North Dakota Domestic Violence Bench Book.
The purpose of the Court Resource Guide is to serve as a practical reference guide for judges and other court personnel, as well as an educational document for judges, attorneys, and court personnel on domestic and sexual violence related topics.
In our 2026 update, we’ve added more information on sexual violence, updated laws, and we’ve tailored the guide so that it’s also a resource for attorneys and legal professionals, not just judges.

ViewThousands of North Dakotans experience domestic and sexual violence each year. But together, we can change that. By giving to NDDSVC, you’re helping us prevent future violence and providing life-saving resources to North Dakota communities.
If you are in an unsafe or abusive situation, there are 18 domestic violence/sexual assault (DV/SA) victim advocacy centers across North Dakota that can help you navigate your options and stay safe. Each center is staffed with professionals who can help you with safety planning, finding shelter, obtaining a protection order, and more.
NDDSVC does not provide direct services to victims and survivors.
