Welcome to the Perry Center website!

Whether you are here to find help or to give help, we hope you will come to know through our website that the Perry Center is a God-centered home reaching out to strengthen and provide for young unwed mothers spiritually, physically, mentally, and emotionally.

We understand that there are difficult decisions to make when you are faced with an unplanned pregnancy. We are here to help young single mothers prepare for these changes.

It is important that each young woman makes the decision that is best for herself and her unborn baby, so that each may live a full, productive, and loving life.

The Perry Center is a quiet, reflective place with counselors experienced in helping to guide women in crisis pregnancy situations. 

The Perry Center is licensed annually by the ND Department of Human Services.

Our Current Needs List:

We welcome all donations of new and good used baby items. New items can be brought directly to the Perry Center with staff receiving it. All other slightly used items (kitchen ware, decorating items, clothes, furniture, appliances, etc) can be dropped off at the Family Life Thrift Store at 1000 45th St SW, behind Hobby Lobby.
