§ 10A-1-7-107. Placement with siblings – Contact and visitation with siblings.

When two or more children in foster care are siblings, every reasonable attempt should be made to place them in the same home.  In making a permanent placement, such children should be placed in the same permanent home or, if the siblings are separated, should be allowed contact or visitation with other siblings; provided, however, the best interests of each sibling shall be the standard for determining whether they should be placed in the same foster placement or permanent placement, or allowed contact or visitation with other siblings.
