Legal Question in Family Law in California

My son and daughter in law are both drug addicts a cps has been opened due to neglect. Can i get custody of my grandson even though I have a criminal record? My last arrest was in 2003 since getting out of prison in 2008 I live a clean and sober life and work in drug and alcohol treatment. My arrests were all drug charges but like i said have lived a different life for some years now
