    Abstract
    This report presents findings of a practicum focused on a ten-week advocacy intervention with eight abused Chinese women. The practicum aimed at developing an effective and culturally appropriate intervention in working with abused Chinese women. The intervention in this practicum integrated the Advocacy Intervention Model with the Cultural Dynamics Model and the Crisis Intervention Model. The effectiveness of the intervention was evaluated through both quantitative and qualitative approaches. Quantitative data included single-subject designs (B - A intervention-follow-up designs), a cross-sectional post-intervention assessment and a one group pre-test post-test design. Qualitative data were collected through an open-ended interview with the participants and helping professionals. In addition to the casework, the practicum included a seminar on the topic of "Cross-cultural practice with abused Chinese-Canadian women". Thirty-six helping professionals from health care and social services attended the seminar. (Abstract shortened by UMI.)
