Legal Question in Family Law in California

Grand-daughter of relative

My sister-in-law is on social security disability. Her daughter is on drugs & has a daughter 12 yrs. old. My s-i-l was told by a counselor that she gets no grandparents rights if her daughter chooses because she is on SSI. We are in CA. Is this true?
