Details: Malama Pono Health Services (MPHS) provides referrals to local food banks and maintains a limited food pantry at our main offices. We believe that in order to become and remain healthy after diagnosis, one must have access to quality, nutritious and healthy foods. For many, limited incomes and distance from food sources make a consistent and stable food supply difficult. MPHS attempts to fill the gap where possible, offering food stuffs purchased with grants and donate monies. Only clients living with HIV/AIDS who are enrolled in our case management program and are income-qualifying have access to this resource.
