This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Mental Health (CFDA 93.242 - Mental Health Research Grants) will test the impact of a Basic Income Guarantee (BIG) program on viral suppression and clinic engagement for young people living with HIV in Chicago. The $819,998 award will: 1) Provide $500 monthly payments through a randomized controlled trial comparing BIG recipients to a treatment-as-usual group; 2) Assess the effects of BIG on viral suppression, clinic engagement, income volatility, and food insecurity; 3) Examine moderating factors such as housing, employment, and mental health; and 4) Explore the acceptability, feasibility, and potential impact of BIG on quality of life, education, and employment through in-depth interviews. This study aims to evaluate whether a dignity-affirming, unconditional cash transfer program can improve health outcomes and social determinants of health for this vulnerable population.
