Power Moves
Pow·er move: The ability to make an effective decision that is reasoned from an objective, empathetic, culturally competent, and social and emotional thought process. This decision has social and economic influence rather it is personal or community driven.
“Power Moves: The Tour” were designed to make social-emotional learning interactive. Learning happens in real time, and that’s how we plan to enrich the participants we serve. Lyrik’s heartbeat is cognitive behavior modification from culturally competent programming. Our programs are developed from, and for the issues, young adults face as they navigate poverty, adverse realities, home life, and school life. These skills can’t be exclusively taught in the classroom. The principles have to be applied in real time. Lyrik’s Identifies businesses, organizations, community groups, and civic leaders to help bring the lessons we teach to life.

Interventions: Level Up
Lyrik’s interventions are focused on utilizing cognitive behavior modification to address adverse realities in a culturally representative manner. Our goal is to not only rehabilitate individuals but to provide abilitation, which involves taking individuals to a state of being they have never experienced before. This is not just for the participants we serve, but also for teachers, administration, and other parties who interact with our young adults.
We use data-driven curriculums and practices to make a significant impact on the demographic we serve. By infusing cognitive behavior modification into our interventions, we help individuals understand and modify their thought patterns, resulting in more positive behaviors and outcomes. Our approach is culturally sensitive and inclusive, acknowledging the unique experiences and backgrounds of the individuals we serve. Through our interventions, we strive to empower individuals to overcome adversity and achieve their full potential.

Fall in the Park Back to School Filed Day
Fall in the Park Back to School is a comprehensive program that addresses the various aspects of going back to school. We understand that going back to school can be a stressful and overwhelming time for students and families, and we want to provide the necessary resources and support to make it a positive experience.
The program focuses on five key areas: school, health, social resources, entertainment, and appearance. We partner with the Emmanuel Child Learning and Development Center to provide wraparound services that align with the school supplies we give away. This includes health, food, housing, jobs, and transportation support, which are all crucial resources that students and families need to succeed.
We also collaborate with the Know Joey Foundation for their Fresh Cut Fresh Start back-to-school bash. This event provides young adults with a fresh cut and style to boost their confidence on the first day of school. We partner with local barbers to provide this service, and we've been doing this for the last 15 years.
On the entertainment side, Lyrik's partners with various organizations to create an unforgettable experience for students and families. We work with the Kansas City Royals to host an amazing event that goes beyond just giving away backpacks. Additionally, we collaborate with the Kansas City Public Schools and Charter schools to offer families a range of education choices and create exposure for education opportunities.
Fall in the Park Back to School takes place in August, the weekend before students go back to school. We encourage families to pre-register for the event on our events page and click on the Fall in the Park link to learn more. By addressing the various aspects of going back to school, we aim to make the transition a positive one for all involved.

Internship In The NowLyrik’s Institution centers on behavior modification, while allowing our young adults to intern in a respected career field. While we do focus on the creative arts, we realize that every young adult will not prosper in that vocation. So, we changed our mentorship program into an internship program. Here we offer young adults the chance to learn “soft skills” such as: job etiquette, critical thinking, conflict resolution and accountability, effective communication, vulnerability, socialization, solution focused behavior, emotional intelligence, as well as goal and process setting. It's these critical skills that lay a foundation for our young adults to thrive once they receive “hard skills” training. Yet and still, we don’t stop there, we pair the interns with respected business owners in the career field of their choice. So, they not only learn the soft skills and training, but they also receive the opportunity to learn the wisdom of their career choice from someone thriving in that industry.

Our internship overview is as follow:
Interns have the option to participate in internships for all 3 sessions, however we don’t see that as being highly likely unless their goal is to receive training in another field that is offered in a different session. All our partners will not participate in 3 sessions. Some internship opportunities will only last for one session. We have long standing partners that continually want the opportunity to train and hire new staff, and we have some partners who are content with being a part of the program as needed. Some hard skill (trade) internships offer job placement after completion of the program. However, the students will have to compete for the final positions because all internships will not hire all 10-13 interns. This plays into the competing component of the curriculum. Some of our partnering organizations do offer certificated training, which is a benefit to taking the course even if they do not get a permanent job placement. Others will leave with the internship with experience gained in their respected field that will propel them ahead, albeit job understanding or experience for their resume. Lastly, some hard skill (trade) training offers college credits. |
Ambassadors
The Ambassadors program is our way of empowering the next generation to shape the future of our culture. At Lyrik’s, we believe that by investing in young adults and giving them the tools to create, innovate, and lead, we can help them infuse positive principles into the culture they come from.
Our focus is on identifying passionate young adults who want to create a new storyline for the future. We understand that this is not something that can simply be talked into existence, but rather something that requires careful nurturing, shaping, and creation. That’s why we have developed in-house internships that we feel will help young adults accomplish just that.
These internships include DJ, Podcast Room, Pivot, Red Dot, Broadcasting in the Now, Digital Marketing in the Now, Videography in the Now, and Recording Engineering in the Now. Each internship has a corresponding business that we have created. Once students have completed their training, they will have the opportunity to run the business they interned for.
At Lyrik’s, we have secured contracts with program and business partners to ensure that our interns can turn their passions into successful businesses. We believe that by providing young adults with the tools to create and run successful businesses, we can help them become the leaders of tomorrow and shape the direction of our culture for the better.
