Evaluation of an Outreach and Intervention Program to Reach HIV- Positive Persons Living in Bronx, NY Single Room Occupancy Hotels
This study evaluates outreach to HIV-infected people living in unstable housing in New York City who are new to CitiWide Harm Reduction.
One hundred and fifty people are interviewed every 6 months, and their medical records are reviewed every 6 months for a total of 18 months.
The study examines how outreach, case management, housing, drug use, mental health, and quality of life are related to people's ability to get into and stay in medical care.
