Abstract:
This article reports on a retrospective study of 59 joint placements of siblings in foster homes, involving a total of 137 children. An overall picture is presented of the agencies' considerations in making these placements. The number of prematurely terminated placements in this group amounted to 14 (23.7%). Several factors that appear related to premature termination are discussed.
