Multicomponent Support Strategies was implemented during the COVID-19 pandemic shelter-in-place order. Ward 86 Clinic staff and trained volunteers provided outreach to 1,816 clients about the availability of various supports, including in-person medical care, mental health and substance use services, medication delivery, food assistance, housing support services, and Positive Health Onsite Program for Unstably Housed People (POP-UP), a low-barrier high-intensity drop-in program. Results showed that viral suppression increased at a faster rate after Multicomponent Support Strategies was implemented.
