North Dakota's longest serving nonprofit celebrates 130 years!

Press Release

For 130 years Fraser, Ltd. has been providing support to all individuals throughout our community, annually supporting over 2,200 individuals.

Fraser, Ltd. was founded in 1893 as a Florence Crittenton Home for unwed mothers, and today supports many programs and services with the shared mission, “supporting children, youth, and adults on their life’s journey towards independence.”

Fraser Child Care Center provides a nurturing, inclusive environment integrating typically developing children and children with special needs.

Valley Hope Counseling meets a significant need for timely, quality mental health services.

Independent Living Services provide person-centered, individualized living and day program options for people supported with intellectual and developmental disabilities.

Fraser, Ltd.’s Transitional Youth Services (TYS) serves youth and young adults aged 16- 26 who are experiencing homelessness or at risk of homelessness. This program ensures wraparound case management support from entry to exit of all programs. This includes Stepping Stones Resource Center (SSRC), Transitional Living Program (TLP), and Permanent Supportive Housing (PSH).

Looking toward the future
Fraser, Ltd. is near the end of a $6 million capital campaign for the expansion of the Stepping Stones Resource Center (SSRC) with $1.2 million left to raise.

This facility will offer an expansion of space and services to the already existing program established in 2009, Stepping Stones Resource Center. SSRC serves 16-26-yearolds, and their children, who are homeless or are at risk of becoming homeless. SSRC served over 1,300 youth and young adults  with over 4,600 touchpoints and provided over 7,000 meals last year alone. In addition to basic needs, SSRC also provides shower facilities, laundry, and computer access. Case managers at SSRC assist individuals in obtaining vital documents (i.e. state identification, birth certificates, social security card), and housing and employment applications. Providing this support allows youth to focus on other areas of independence and self-sufficiency.
