Abstract

Abstract: The aging population of people living with HIV (PLWH) face unique health and social challenges. We piloted a community-based wellness program, People Aging and Thriving with HIV (PATH2Wellness), aiming to improve health outcomes through physical activity, nutritional counseling, and social support within Colorado Health Network, a statewide AIDS service organization. Participants ages 50+ were recruited into three cohorts between September 2020 and December 2021. Weekly step counts and psychosocial measures were collected. Overall, while there were no statistically significant improvements in step count or secondary outcomes (including depression, social connectedness, self-reported physical function, and quality of life [all p ≥ .55]), participants noted a high level of satisfaction. Ongoing feedback led to modifications for program improvement; as such, PATH2Wellness shows promise in improving mental health and social connectedness, and findings underscore the importance of tailored programs for older PLWH, suggesting avenues for research and program development.
