Abstract: The substance abuse program (SAP) is a multifaceted, cognitive-behavioral program that targets attitudes and behaviors related to drug taking and criminal behavior. The short-term impact of the SAP was assessed using five standardized measures administered pre- and post-program. Its long-term impact was assessed by comparing recidivism rates for SAP participants to a matched control group. Results revealed large, desirable short-term changes but no differences in recidivism. For both groups, the strongest predictor of reoffending was whether individuals used crack cocaine, suggesting that the SAP and other programs should be tailored to meet the needs of specific subgroups of substance users.
