    The daughter was placed in a foster home without the knowledge of the father? Where?

    The father needs to contact child protective services (or a similar agency), prove that he is the father and ask for info on the location of the child.

    You have no legal standing in this.

    Did your brother lose all rights to his daughter? Unless he did he should have been advised and even if there was an order of protection against him, his family could still potentially provide the foster care. He should have been told.

    Why are there orders of protection for years on end?
