Study Details

The goal of this trial is to learn if providing an unlimited transit pass will improve the health of people living with HIV that are experiencing unstable housing. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Do participants who are provided the transit pass manage their HIV better? 2. Do participants who are provided the transit pass use other social services more that could improve their health and quality of life? Researchers will compare the group that is provided with the transit pass to a control group that is not provided with the pass. Participants will fill out a baseline survey and a follow-up survey after 6 months. Researchers will also look at participant's HIV lab tests to see how well their HIV is being managed.
