Your friend should disclose this in the initial interview/discussion with the social worker.

Unfounded complaints are just that - there is a record of the complaint being registered, investigated and found not valid/credible/in existence. Further, the parents in this case did not abandon the child who made the complaint, they got him the help he needed.

What's important is to be upfront and honest. Teh SW will also be impressed if they talk about what they learned from the experience, what they would do if it happened again, etc.
