Description

As a collective of youth programs focused on using media and music industry skills to promote STEM fields, enhance academic achievement and develop future entrepreneurs, we believe in meeting youth where they are and using their current interests to engage them in life skills that will improve their chances of success. We provide the equipment and space to learn and develop their crafts.

We envision MRI becoming a national, youth-run, collegiate institution that is well-known among top Hip Hop artists and communities as one of the best places to learn and honor the 5 pillars of HipHop; an incubator for tomorrow’s industry leaders.

we value…

Positive Youth Development. We believe it is easier & more effective to change outcomes for youth by adding positive experiences & qualities to their environment than trying to fix or change current negative factors like where they live.
Authenticity. We believe youth are most comfortable & open with adults that respect them enough, to be honest & real with them.
Leadership. We believe youth should be given opportunities to lead & meaningfully contribute towards the collective goal.
Positive Role Models. We believe youth deserve access to successful, positive role models working in the fields they are interested in.
Exposure. We believe the human imagination is often limited to the things it is exposed to. We believe youth should be exposed to the unseen career paths within the HipHop industry & opportunities outside of their hometowns.
Entrepreneurship. We believe entrepreneurship is one way youth can surpass unwarranted disadvantages & write their own fate.
Arts Instruction. We believe early direction & guidance can empower youth to own & perfect their craft, leading to greater success.
