Everyone has strengths and weaknesses. Rather than focusing on her weaknesses, like Math, try instead to emphasize her strengths. What is she good at? What is she passionate about? These questions will lead her to a career that is right for her.
I've always disliked Math. No. Actually, I've always hated Math. In high school, I took the required 2 years of Math and never made higher than a C in either class. In college, I cleverly chose 2 of the few degree programs that didn't require math courses, earning a B.A. in English and Communication. I channeled my strengths and interests in reading and writing into a successful 8-year career as a corporate Paralegal, and my current career as a Freelance Writer and Editor.
There are many careers that don't require higher level Math. I hope that your niece will find one of them, and be very successful.

You don't have to be a genius at math to have a good career in life.
Basic math classes would be good, to help manage her money, do her budget, pay her own bills, and do basic income tax.
Otherwise, the career options are endless.
The best way to explore it is to sit down with kind, patient, open-minded adults that know her, and she trusts. Read books together, discuss her skills.
Is she quiet? Or outgoing?
Is she a giver and want to work directly with people?
Or does she prefer independent work?
Does she like to work with a team? Or work by herself, then report to a team, as needed?
An internetship in the field she may want to work in would be good. Or volunteer work.
Career counselors at community colleges are great in the US. They take the time to discuss things. Have her try that.
Nursing is in high demand these days. So is entry level technical support in software. Careers range from basic, to complicated, and you can have a good career path in both of those fields.
good luck to her!!

It could also be a genuine distaste or lack of aptitude, and that is o.k. as well although mathematics is important in many more lucrative career paths. It is my experience that students who do not excel at Math typically do excel in another subject such as English or Art. If your niece has an interest in another subject or in a hobby relative to another subject it would be wise for her to nurture that interest and chose a career in that area and/or find a way to relate her interests to a better understanding of mathematics.
Now, for your career question, I would suggest that your niece take a career aptitude test. Her school's guidance office should have one available. If not they should provide additional resources to point her in the right direction.

It depends on what she likes or her interest. Like I said, there are many courses there that doesn't really require too much Math so there are still plenty of choices for her.

Perhaps she (like myself) will start to see the practical applications and start to appreciate it in college.
If she hates it for the rest of her life so be it. What does she enjoy doing? Artwork, Acting, Cooking, Singing, Modeling, Dancing . . . just to name a few.
