Summary

This protocol is for the long term follow-up study of "Comparing Food and Cash Assistance for HIV-Positive Men and Women on Antiretroviral Therapy (ART) in Tanzania", a 3-arm randomized controlled trial led by Professor Sandra McCoy at the University of California Berkeley and Dr. Prosper Njau at the Tanzanian Ministry of Health and Social Welfare. The investigators will determine the long-term effectiveness of short-term incentives for ART adherence and retention in care. The study will also determine whether incentives can also be used to re-engage PLHIV with HIV care after they have fallen out of care.
