Summary
This study tests whether giving young people (ages 18-35) living with HIV a monthly payment of $500 for 18 months helps them stay in care and keep the virus under control. About 304 participants who have faced financial hardship will be randomly assigned to receive either the cash plus usual care or usual care alone. Researchers will track medical records and viral loads over 36 months to see if the extra income improves health outcomes.
