Title: Evaluation of the Seeing Oneself Pilot in Saskatchewan

Summary: In 2013, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) "F" Division supported the pilot implementation of the "Seeing Oneself" program at three sites in southern Saskatchewan. The "Seeing Oneself" program is a cognitive-behavioural substance abuse early intervention program for youth. It is intended to reduce alcohol and substance abuse and associated antisocial behaviours by directly addressing youth's reasons and motivations for using substances and building relevant coping skills. Evaluation Methodology The purpose of the current evaluation was to assess the quality of the pilot implementation of "Seeing Oneself" in Saskatchewan in terms of its fidelity to the tested and supported program model, as well as to investigate the effectiveness and sustainability of the program within the Saskatchewan context. Several data sources were engaged for the present evaluation, including key stakeholder interviews, surveys, and document and literature review. A total of six interviews were conducted with stakeholders involved in the Saskatchewan pilot implementation, including representatives of each site and of the RCMP administration in charge of overseeing the pilot. Four supplemental interviews were conducted with individuals involved in the program at other locations, including the program developer and a prior program evaluator. Seven youths at two sites participated in surveys. Additional performance monitoring and training workshop survey data were provided by the prior program evaluator. The collected qualitative data were analyzed using thematic analysis to identify consistent themes relating to the program implementation. The findings within each theme were organized by a description of what occurred in the pilot, followed by a comparison to the program literature and findings from other sites where the program has been implemented.
