Brief Summary

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.
