PartnerSPEAK Volunteer Expression of Interest
Acknowledgement of Country
We acknowledge the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, the First Australians, whose lands, winds and waters we all now share, and pay respect to their unique values, and their continuing and enduring cultures which deepen and enrich the life of our nation and communities. We pay our respects to elders past and present.


Diversity Statement
PartnerSPEAK wants all non-offending partners and families affected by child sexual abuse material to have equal access to and be supported by PartnerSSPEAK as early as possible in their journey.

We know the production and sharing of child abuse material is a global issue that exists in all communities. We also know that some people can experience additional barriers to accessing our support; and we recognise the work we need to do to provide a safe and inclusive environment for all people.

We are working towards becoming safe and more inclusive for all people. We recognise that while we build our knowledge and improve our practice, sometimes we might get it wrong. We will have mechanisms to seek and respond to feedback, particularly if we get it wrong.

Thank you very much for you interest in volunteering at PartnerSPEAK. We are grateful for your support. PartnerSPEAK is all about lifting the voices and experiences of the non-offending partners and close family members of perpetrators of child sexual abuse material. All our volunteers, no matter in which role, help us to lift our voices and to push back against stigma and shame.

It is important for you to know that PartnerSPEAK is a child-safe organisation and we take this very seriously. All volunteers will need to undertake working with children and police checks (at our expense of course) and we will ask a safeguarding children question when we contact your referees.
