abstract: 'This article addresses some potential limitations of key findings from
recent research into inequalities in children''s social services by
providing additional evidence from multilevel models that suggest the
socioeconomic social gradient and `Inverse Intervention Law'' in
children''s services interventions are statistically significant after
controlling for possible confounding spatial and population effects.
Multilevel negative binomial regression models are presented using
English child welfare data to predict the following intervention rates
at lower super output area-level: Child in Need (n = 2707, middle super
output area {[}MSOA] n = 543, local authority {[}LA] n = 13); Child
Protection Plan (n = 4115, MSOA n = 837, LA n = 18); and Children Looked
After (n = 4115, MSOA n = 837, LA n = 18). We find strong evidence
supporting the existence of a steep socioeconomic social gradient in
child welfare interventions. Furthermore, we find certain local
authority contexts exacerbate this social gradient. Contexts of low
overall deprivation and high income inequality are associated with
greater socioeconomic inequalities in neighbourhood intervention rates.
The relationship between neighbourhood deprivation and children looked
after rates is almost five times stronger in local authorities with
these characteristics than it is in local authorities with high overall
deprivation and low income inequality. We argue that social policy
responses addressing structural determinants of child welfare
inequalities are needed, and that strategies to reduce the numbers of
children taken into care must address underlying poverty and income
inequality at both a local and national level.'
