What do I say to a friend who just got disowned?

Short version: 18 yo female friend goes home for Christmas break, confesses to parents that she doesn't believe in the church, they confiscate phone, computer, car, and kick her out. She has an apartment here but no job. Parents say they'll help her out during next semester, but that's it.

As a close friend, I have no idea how to help other than just being here. She'll be back in town this weekend, and until that it's just text messages from the phone she snatched back.

What can I do to help?
