An evaluation of a community-based food supplementation for people living with HIV in Ghana: implications for community-based interventions in Ghana

Background Community-based care and support services are limited in sub-Saharan Africa and as a result a high number of people living with HIV (PLHIV) are not getting the required care and support services. The aim of this study was to assess the impact of food supplementation services for PLHIV in Ghana on weight gained and factors associated with weight gained.
