Reach Out Arts runs programs in music and art to enhance the lives of seniors, people with disabilities, and others. 
Our focus is the use of music and art to enhance the communities and individuals, and is based on the approach developed by our founder, John Diamond, MD, who was a pioneer in the use of the arts for well-being.
