Yoga Intervention for Substance Use and Antiretroviral Therapy Adherence in Community

People with HIV and a substance use disorder who are reentering the community from prison or
jail face the dual risks of relapse and interruptions in adherence to antiretroviral therapy
(ART) medication. This mixed-methods randomized controlled trial will compare the stress,
substance use and ART adherence outcomes of participants in a 12-session, 90-minute weekly
yoga group intervention with participants in a treatment as usual control group. All
participants are re-entering the community, have HIV and experience substance use
challenges.


Inclusion Criteria:

- have HIV

- experience substance use challenges, within one year of reentry from prison or jail
