Why are the children in DHS custody?
If the natural parents of the children have been determined unfit by a Court, then you should intervene in the DHS case. If your are "qualified and suitable" to act as guardian of the children then you may be granted that status. The law does provide for a family member to have preferred status in such acase but the ultimate question is what is in the childrens' best interest.
