The Doctor's Touch Outreach

The Doctor’s Touch Outreach is dedicated to enriching the lives of youth in the St. Louis community through high-quality, accessible arts education. Over the next 12 months, our goal is to increase youth participation in our programs by 25% across the communities we serve. Through structured, evidence-based arts experiences, we aim to empower students ages 5–18 to strengthen their creative expression, improve academic outcomes, and enhance socio-emotional development. This mission aligns with our broader commitment to equity, education, and holistic youth development.

We are proud to share that our Spring Community Event on Saturday, June 21, 2025, was a tremendous success! The day was filled with creativity, unity, and joy as our dedicated staff and talented arts scholars delivered outstanding performances in both dance and music, beautifully showcasing their growth and hard work throughout the season.

A video of the event, which was live-streamed on YouTube, captured these unforgettable

moments for all to enjoy.  We extend our heartfelt thanks to all the families, volunteers, and community members who joined us—and a special thank you to Alderwoman Pamela Boyd

for her presence and continued support of this event and our mission.

We extend our heartfelt thanks to all the families, volunteers, and community members who

came out to support and celebrate with us!

The Doctor's Touch Outreach is not just about performing arts; it's about fostering connections, nurturing talent, and making the transformative power of music accessible to all. Whether through our educational programs, community outreach concerts, therapy services, or music products, we are committed to spreading joy, healing, and empowerment through the universal language of the arts.

 

          Together, we create harmonious communities where every note, every beat, and every melody contributes to a more vibrant and connected world.​  By combining youth outreach and music education we are dedicated to inspiring and empowering young people in the St. Louis community through arts education, mentorship, and creative expression.
