Rolling out the red carpet: Non-offending partners and affected family members as allies in disruption.

Background: In Australia, there is a lack of research on the impacts on law enforcement officers (LEO) and agencies (LEA) working with families impacted by child sexual abuse. PartnerSPEAK is the only Australian specialist not-for-profit, peer-led agency advocating for the secondary victims or non-offending partners and affected family members (NOP/AFM) of those who engage in the online sexual exploitation of children (OSEC).

Objective: This research explores the interactions between Australian specialised OSEC law enforcers and the NOP/AFM of OSEC perpetrators and how these impact well-being and investigative efficacy.
