ABSTRACT The current study evaluated the clinical effectiveness and implementation of a brief integrated pediatric primary care program, First Approach Skills Training (FAST). We analyzed clinical retrospective data during the first year of implementation of FAST. Patients and parents completed symptom measures as part of standard clinical care. Integrated behavioral health providers completed measures regarding the FAST program's usability, feasibility, effectiveness, and cultural responsiveness. Patients and parents reported significant improvement in anxiety symptoms, depression symptoms, and disruptive behaviors. Clinicians rated FAST as highly usable, feasible, effective, and culturally responsive. The FAST program demonstrates preliminary clinical effectiveness for common youth mental health problems in pediatric primary care.
