Summary

1. Determine the "dose-response" relationship between a cash transfer amount and HIV viral suppression at 6 months
2. Identify the most effective cash transfer size to increase the proportion of people living with HIV infection (PLHIV) retained in care and with suppressed viral load (\<1000 copies/ml) after 6 months. (This amount will be further evaluated in a cluster randomized trial in Phase 2).
