Detailed Description:

The primary aims of this study are to test the feasibility, acceptability and preliminary effects of a VE to address prevention of HIV-related comorbidities. A waitlist control feasibility clinical trial will be conducted. We will assign (N=80) eligible participants and ensure balanced allocation to intervention and control groups over the intervention period. We hypothesize that the VE will be feasible and acceptable to persons living with HIV, and that they will apply their VE learning to real-life situations and health behaviors for prevention of HIV-related comorbidities.
