Program accomplishments

• Agency OverviewRape and Abuse Crisis Center of Fargo-Moorhead (RACC) is the sole designated provider of crisis intervention services for victims of dating and domestic violence, sexual assault, child sexual abuse, stalking, harassment, human sex and labor trafficking, sexual exploitation, and elder abuse in the Fargo-Moorhead-West Fargo (FMWF) metropolitan area. The agency delivers comprehensive, trauma-informed support to victims of these crimes across Cass and Traill counties in North Dakota and Clay and Wilkin counties in Minnesota. Its mission is "to offer 24/7 crisis intervention, advocacy, counseling, and education to all persons affected by sexual and domestic violence and provide prevention programs to create a society free of personal abuse."Since opening its doors in 1977, RACC has empowered more than 110,000 victims to seek justice, reclaim their self-worth, and build safe, independent lives. Services are available through the agency's 24/7 crisis hotline, walk-in and scheduled appointments, and presence at community-based outreach sites. In 2024, RACC supported 3,816 children and adults across all programs with the dedication of 38 full-time employees, 29 on-call and part-time staff, and 103 volunteers. All victim services are offered free of charge and without discrimination.Service EvaluationIn 2024, the agency collected quarterly surveys to evaluate clients' service experience at RACC.

Victim services are available by phone, in person at RACC's program center, on scene at local emergency rooms, and at a range of community outreach sites, including jails, homeless shelters, schools, and juvenile detention centers. In 2024, RACC provided crisis intervention and advocacy services to 2,438 abuse victims through 41,683 service activities aimed to enhance their personal safety, foster self-sufficiency, and promote overall well-being. These services included emotional support, information and referrals, safety planning, emergency financial assistance, civil and criminal justice support, and medical accompaniment.CounselingRACC's master's level counseling team offers a wide range of evidence-based therapies to help children and adults process both the short- and long-term impacts of abuse-related trauma.

The team also incorporates art and other forms of creative expression to provide a safe, non-verbal outlet for victims to process their emotions.In 2024, the team delivered 5,166 hours of therapeutic services to 1,058 individuals at RACC's program center and various community outreach sites, including all Fargo-Moorhead-West Fargo (FMWF) public high schools, Minnesota State University-Moorhead, and the Rural Enrichment and Counseling Headquarters in Hawley, MN.

To prioritize safety, custodial and non-custodial parents arrive and depart at different times using separate entrances.
