In Ohio where I am, family is typically given priority over foster parents when a child's case goes to adoption. Even if the family has never met the child or is from another state. Sometimes it can take a long time for word to pass through the system and the family that a child has been in care. Especially in the cases of some more distant relatives. Of course, the family still has to pass a homestudy and be approved, but CPS likes to keep families together. Sometimes exceptions can be made, but usually a judge will rule for the family over the foster family.
