*Participants were asked, “Do you know of any places that offer [resource type] on the South Side of Chicago?” and instructed to think about specific places

Mixed effects logistic regression models were used to estimate differences between usual care and HealtheRx groups at follow-up compared to baseline; adjusted for age, race/ethnicity, gender, educational attainment, insurance type, and clinical location (Primary Care Clinic or Emergency Department)

For ordinal analyses, the number of resource types were analyzed from 0 (no reported knowledge of any resource types) to 6 (knowledge of all 6 resource types).

§For binary analyses, participants with knowledge of (1) “1 or more resource types” (n = 1 to 6 resource types) were grouped together; and (2) “2 or more resource types” (n = 2 to 6 resource types) were grouped together
