Morphology
The meaning is directly and transparently derivable from 'community' (a group of people) plus 'outreach' (an organized effort to provide help or services); together they denote efforts aimed at a community. This is a regular noun–noun compound and a common, cross‑linguistic organizational term, so a B1 learner who knows both constituents will readily understand it.
Etymology
The phrase community outreach comes from the simple image of a group or organization literally reaching out into the local area to give help, services, or information. So, community outreach means programs that actively reach out to 'support' and 'connect' with local people.
