Subject:RE: Adoption outcomes for siblings adopted together vs. apart
Really interesting topic that needs more work!
You may already have seen this recent, interesting article. Not exactly on your topics below, but I think the study may raise some relevant questions.

Subject: Adoption outcomes for siblings adopted together vs. apart
Dear all,
I am looking for research on outcomes of children adopted with or without one or more siblings when sibling groups are available for adoption. I would also welcome any literature on outcomes for siblings who are sepearted through adoption but who continue to have contact. Finally, I am interested in what the literature says about the benefits of keepig siblings together in foster care versus seperating them through adoption (i.e., the relative merits of keeping the siblings together in an impermanent setting, versus seperating them for the purposes of finding one or more a permanent home). Any and all research gratefully accepted.
Many thanks,
Kate
