Legal Question in Family Law in Indiana

i have been taking care of a child since he was 11 years old. I have bought all of his belongings and paid for his education. He was sent to foster care over his mom abusing drugs and his step father trying to shoot him. He was released back into her custody last summer of July 2010. He didnt feel safe in the home so he choose to live with his father who also abuses drugs and is now in prison for domestic violence. The child is now 17 and has lived with me for the past 8 months. I'm wondering how i can go about getting custody of him?
