Fully revised and updated, this popular Good Practice Guide highlights the factors which affect decisions on whether siblings are placed together or separately, and considers when, how and by whom key decisions are made.

Together or Apart? looks at the needs of new permanent families and makes suggestions about recruitment, preparation and support of families taking sibling groups. It discusses the actual process of placing brothers and sisters, including those who are to be separated and those who are to be united or re-united, and considers issues around post-placement and post-adoption contact for siblings placed separately.
