Whenever a child comes into the custody of a  public children services agency, either as part of a sibling group  or subsequent to the previous placement of a sibling, the agency  is strongly encouraged to make reasonable efforts to place the  siblings together, unless it would be contrary to the siblings'  best interest or well-being. If siblings are not placed together,  the agency should make reasonable efforts to ensure the siblings  maintain frequent connections through visitation or other ongoing  interaction, unless contrary to the siblings' placement or  well-being.
