Etymology

The term 'outreach' originated in the late 17th century from the combination of 'out' and 'reach'. It initially referred to the act of reaching out physically. Over time, it evolved to encompass the idea of extending services, support, or communication to a broader audience or community. The concept of outreach has become increasingly important in fields such as community engagement, social work, and marketing.
