She was told they were trying to make her quit by lowering her hours, and giving her a hard time. She became furious, quit on the spot, and spoke obscene language to her general manager and the owner of the company. She is not allowed to go into any branch of this business again--and told they would call the police if she tried to set foot inside. She feels terrible, and is still a minor.

Her youth is on her side. When she applies for a new job, she should just tell them she made immature mistakes and has learned her lesson.
And, so she can really mean it, her mistakes were: listening to a rumor, disrupting business, insubordination and profane language.

The answer to your question depends on what the result is that she wants to accomplish. Does she feel bad about the way she acted? Does she need to apologize for her language and actions? She should send a letter to the business owner and manager apologizing.
Does she want her job back? Probably not going to happen, even if she apologizes. They wanted to get rid of her for some reason and they accomplished that.
Does she think she has a cause for some action against the employer because she was told that they were conspiring against her? Who told her they were doing that? Is it a reliable source? This would have to be referred to the state Department of Labor. She may need an attorney to help her with this.

There's really not a whole lot you can do, emotional support is good but I think the most important thing you can do for her is to help her understand that when faced with that sort of situation, you can't really respond in that sort of manner. It's understandable she was upset, as would I, but there were definately better ways she could have handled the situation. There's plenty of options our in the world for jobs, is there something in particular she has a knack for? Help her understand that jobs come and go, especially at such a young age. I know I had numerous jobs in my younger years.

What is it you think you ought to do for her?
If she's old enough to go to work for a company, then she's old enough to suffer the consequences of her bad behavior. If she feels terrible, that's a good start. Maybe she's learned her lesson.

What can you do for her?
You can help her learn how to be more mature and how to control her emotions.
You can also point out that rumor is not fact and that actions have consequences.

Tell her "welcome to the work force". Sounds like their "conspiracy" worked like a charm...not only did she quit but she also provided some entertainment for the other employees.
