Okla. Stat. tit. 10A, § 10A-1-7-107: Placement with siblings – Contact and visitation with

siblings.

A. When two or more children in foster care are siblings, every

reasonable attempt should be made to place them in the same home,

except as provided in subsection B of this section. 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.

B. Siblings may be separated if the court and the Department of

Human Services find that placement of siblings together would be

contrary to the safety or well-being of any of the siblings, and:

1. One sibling has resided in a foster family home for six (6)

or more months and has established a relationship with the foster

family;

2. The siblings have never resided in the same home;

3. There is no established relationship between the siblings;

or

4. It is in the best interests of the child to remain in the

current foster family home placement.
