Clinical Trial Summary

UCSF and Project Open Hand (POH), a community based organization in San Francisco which provides meals and groceries to chronically ill clients in the Bay Area, have partnered to conduct an initial randomized controlled trial (RCT) of the Changing Health through Food Support (CHEFS) pilot intervention implemented by POH. The intervention consists of providing comprehensive, medically-appropriate food support, individual nutritional counseling, and group-based nutritional education over 6 months to low-income clients who have been diagnosed with HIV in order to improve their viral load and health-related quality of life (primary outcomes) as well as depression, ART adherence, food security and diet quality (secondary outcomes). We will randomize 200 participants to the intervention (n=100) or control (n=100). Participants will be followed for 6 months. The investigators will assess outcomes at baseline and 6-month follow-up using a quantitative survey and blood draws. In addition, the investigators will conduct a qualitative study at follow-up in a subset of participants to understand perceived impacts, barriers and facilitators.
