OPINION

VOSS, Presiding Judge.

In this case, appellant asks us to reverse the juvenile court's termination of her parental rights with respect to her daughter. We hold that Arizona law permits a trial court to terminate parental rights when a parent's drug addiction has caused the initial removal of her child by the State and the parent substantially neglects to remedy her addiction for more than a year after the removal.
