It sounds like the first step would be to contact law enforcement since this is a crime. The state would seek restitution when resolving the case. You can also sue civilly for theft. Because of the value this would be a small claims action.

You can sue in small claims court. Collection of the sums due will be the issue AND proving she actually took it.
