Can a 17 year old that is expecting a child get emancipated from her parent's home?

My friend is 17 and she is pregnant. She has an 18 year old boyfriend with an apartment, she attends school, and she has a job. We live in South Dakota and she currently lives with her uncle. Her parents are divorced and her father is her legal guardian. Also, she is mentally abused and lives in a smoking environment. Her mother is abusive towards her hence the reason she does not live with her mother. Is there anyway she can get emancipated from her parent's residence?Can a 17 year old that is expecting a child get emancipated from her parent's home?
She would have to prove to a judge that she can support herself and her child without assistance from anyone, even her uncle or boyfriend. The reason for this is that these people are not obligated to help. Otherwise, it is possible for her uncle to get custody of her (even if just physical) so that she can be away from the violence.
