Abstract: This report presents the protocol and preliminary findings from an outcome evaluation study of the Circle South East's Non-Offending Partner Programme 'Breaking the Cycle'.

“…The findings contribute to the existing literature relating to psychoeducational groups with NOPs, which points to positive, if tentative, outcomes in a range of areas (e.g. Hernandez et al, 2009;Wager et al, 2015). Given that the majority of outcome literature is quantitative, the current study provides a more detailed understanding of how and why an intervention may be useful for NOPs.…”

“…In the US, favourable results were reported for a pilot group for NOPs combining trauma-focused CBT with support and education (Hernandez et al, 2009). In the UK, Wager, Wager, and Wilson (2015) used pre-and post-psychometrics to measure attitudinal change in a range of areas following a psychoeducational intervention. They found a number of positive trends, the strongest being an apparently improved relationship between NOPs and Social Services.…”

“…The effectiveness of this program has been tested and the results is, fewer students have behavioral problems when they are taught by parents and teachers who have received program training. This happens because there is an increase in the skills of parents and teachers in childcare and classroom management (Furlong and McGilloway, 2012;Wager, Wager and Wilson, 2015). PACE (Parenting our Children to Excellence) is a parenting training program designed to improve parents' coping and self efficacy skills in childcare (Audience, 2017).…”

“…While the overt mother-blaming narrative may have lessened, there is now seen to be an exploitative burden placed on mothers to ameliorate the risk of child sexual offending by their partners ( Duncan et al, 2020 ). The needs and experiences of nonoffending partners and family are rarely considered separately from those of the perpetrator or children, despite the available research indicating that they face significant trauma and upheaval in the aftermath of discovering the CSAM offending of their loved one ( Duncan et al, 2020 ; Liddell & Taylor, 2015 ; Stitt, 2007 ; Wager et al, 2015 ).…”
