NOLP Food Pantries & Nutrition

We can help you with food and other essentials so that you can focus on getting healthy and staying healthy.

APLA Health’s Vance North Necessities of Life Program (NOLP) is the nation’s largest network of food pantries for people with HIV.
Clients at our NOLP food pantries receive pre-bagged groceries that include fresh dairy, frozen meats, fresh produce, and an assortment of canned and dry goods that cover 100% of weekly meals as well as hygiene items and cleaning supplies.

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.

For more information, please contact us at nolp1@aplahealth.org.
