The UK's first drug and alcohol court is due to open in London.
It is hoped that the new family court will help parents beat their addictions to drugs and alcohol and in-turn help keep families together.
The London councils of Westminster, Islington and Camden have collaborated to set up the court that will not hear criminal cases but rather fast-track parents to treatment and recovery with support from therapists and social workers.
Justice minister Bridget Prentice told the BBC: "Cases will be brought to court earlier wherever a parent is suspected of substance or alcohol abuse.
"And during the course of the case, the focus will very much be on therapy and recovery and so therefore on the longer-term interest of the child."
She added: "If we can take a step towards ending the misery drugs and alcohol abuse causes families, that can only be a good thing."
The three-year pilot will cost more than £1.3 million and is based on a model first used in the US.
