| HIV / AIDS Services Overview | Daily Nutritious Meals | Grocery Center | Nutrition Counseling Eligibility Form | Contact Client Services | Current Hot Meal Menu Project Open Hand believes that a program of good nutrition can help an individual stay stronger and lead a healthier life. Medical research has shown that nutritious food is one of the most powerful weapons available for fighting the effects of HIV/AIDS. Furthermore, it has been clinically confirmed that malnutrition is the cause of death for many of the people who succumb to the disease. Although advances in protease inhibitors and other medications offer new hope to slow the progress of the disease, they only increase the importance of good nutrition. Proper nutrition is critical in the absorption of certain medications by the body, and through diet, one can reduce many of the debilitating side effects caused by these medications. At Project Open Hand, our goal is to feed the body, mind and soul, through healthy meals, groceries and nutrition information, all delivered with love, by our dedicated staff and volunteers.
