Highlights This study focused on implementation processes, and facilitators and barriers to ACEs screenings. There was high feasibility and acceptability of ACEs screenings at infants’ pediatric visits. Almost half of families at well‐child pediatric visits indicated positive for ACEs. A majority of families with ACEs accepted prevention services in the pediatric setting. Wellness navigators provided a cultural bridge and service access in integrated behavioral health.
