I bet you can tell I am a first born, always trying to find an answer. Big hugs for your sister and stay strong. Has she tried this:

Sometimes that "overqualified" bit will stop low end employers from hiring a professional. Architecture is bad right now, as no one is building. A master architect in our family has turned to teaching for the time being as there is no work for her. Long gaps in service put the professional companies off, so it seems like a Catch 22. Operation Able has been around a long time, and has dealt with these situations. It is worth a try. Best of luck and don't give up!
