In order to stay healthy, people living with HIV must have steady access to nutritious food. Food security helps ensure medications work, but also ensures better mental health and reduced stress.

Clients at our Vance North Necessities of Life Program (NOLP) food pantries receive pre-bagged groceries that include fresh dairy, frozen meats, fresh produce, and an assortment of canned and dry goods. Starting in 2020, we were able to provide 100% of a person’s weekly nutritional needs; including snacks.

NOLP clients also receive bilingual, one-on-one nutritional counseling and nutrition classes. Fact sheets about a range of nutrition topics and recipes for use with NOLP products are available in all NOLP locations.
Our most glamorous perk
Star Walkers are basically AIDS Walk royalty. That’s why we’ve brought in Queens to shout them out! For the first time ever, we’re sending Star Walkers customized video messages from some of LA’s most iconic Drag Queens. These videos hype up your fundraising campaign and make your friends take notice of the amazing work you’re doing for APLA Health and LA communities. The September 13 finish line is fast approaching, so it’s time to work it!
