After enrollment, participants will be randomized to either receive the intervention (treatment) from trained health educators or undergo observation as usual (control group). Randomization will be stratified by HIV serostatus. A control group is appropriate because participants will still receive services offered through probation and will be offered the intervention after completion of the trial. Subjects will be paid, not for participating in the intervention, but for providing research assessments. The newly adapted intervention will be delivered over no more than a 3-month period (it will be shorter if the adaptation process is supportive). Baseline assessments will assess the pre-intervention period. The 3-month assessment will be the end-of-intervention effects and the post-intervention assessments will be at 6, 9 and 12 months. HIV prevention knowledge will be assessed based on quizzes used previously for HHRP+; though final quiz content will depend on final selected materials for the intervention. Subjects will be followed for 12 months with assessments by trained research assistants.
The aim of this study is to adapt and pilot test the Holistic Health Recovery Program for women with and at risk for HIV (HHRP+), a CDC evidence-based secondary HIV prevention intervention, that will serve as a framework to optimize HIV treatment outcomes and reduce HIV-associated risk for women under correctional community supervision.

| Holistic Health Recovery Program for HIV+ | Behavioral | Holistic Health Recovery Program for HIV+ (HHRP+) is a CDC-recommended, evidence based behavioral (psychoeducational) group intervention focused on harm reduction principles. The investigators systematically adapted HHRP+ using findings from qualitative interviews with the target population of adult women living with and at-risk for HIV who are justice-involved (on probation, parole, or recently released from prison or jail). |
