On September 29, 2000, Governor Davis signed AB 1987 (Steinberg, Chapter 909, Statutes of 2000), which requires social workers to include in court reports a section on the child’s sibling relationships and the plans for visitation of siblings. It also requires social workers to notify children on their caseload of significant events in the lives of siblings. This bill aimed to take us one step closer to requiring that siblings be placed together.
