2023-10-19 10:00 - 18:00 | Plexpod Westport, 300 E. 39th St, Kansas City, 64111, United States
What is Lyrik’s Institution? Too often, our community partners hear about the impact we make and the lives we touch but don’t understand what we do. Lyrik’s is a cognitive behavior modification-based program that works with at-risk young adults aged 13 – 25. Because we focus on young adults that are tier 2, 3, and 4, our approach to the work has to look different from others that deliver programming. We understand that we must build relationships before we can start the teaching process. We do that in a peculiar way, and we want to show you how we do it.
You can join us for our open house. We have three sessions that we are opening up to our community and community partners. Here are the times
Morning Session: 10:00 AM – 12:00 PM
Afternoon session: 1:00 PM – 3:00 PM
Evening Session: 4:00 PM – 6:00 PM
We are providing a lite breakfast, lite lunch, and a lite evening snack with drinks. We want your time with us to be relaxed and impactful.
