Guaranteed Income to Boost HIV Care Continuity and Suppression Post-Jail Release

The goal of this clinical trial is to understand the implementation requirements and potential health impacts of a guaranteed income (GI) intervention targeting people living with HIV with criminal legal involvement (PWH-CLI). The main questions it aims to answer are: * How acceptable is a GI intervention, and its intervention components, among PWH-CLI participants and stakeholders? * How feasible is a GI intervention for PWH-CLI? What are the implementation barriers and opportunities for this intervention? * What is the preliminary efficacy of the GI intervention on improving HIV care outcomes for PWH-CLI? Researches will compare study engagement and study outcomes across three randomization arms (A: receive full GI amount as one lump sum payment; B: receive full GI amount split over nine monthly installments; C: participant chooses whether to receive GI as lump sum payment or monthly installments). HIV care outcomes will be compared against a retrospective cohort of PWH-CLI patients as historical controls. Participants will: * Be randomized to receive GI intervention as a lump sum payment or monthly installment (over nine months) or choose their preference. * Complete 3 surveys throughout study follow up to assess experience with the intervention, experience with social services and benefits programs, experience with the criminal legal system, and HIV care outcomes. * Be interviewed by the research team to further understand the experience with the intervention.
