The Livelihoods and Technical Assistance (LIFT) project developed this document as an interactive guide for project staff, implementing partners, and practitioners involved in linking clinical facilities, particularly those offering nutrition assessment counseling and support with economic strengthening, livelihood, and food security programs. It is meant to be a practical guide to increase understanding of these essential components in order to pinpoint bottlenecks and promote realistic, effective, and efficient interventions to protect and improve the well-being of populations living with HIV and AIDS.
