The legacy of VCAAA services is, in part, a reflection of the dedicated members of the Agency’s community-based Advisory Council. Made up of a body of advocates whose mission is to create and provide the best possible services for people 60 and older, caregivers, and people with disabilities, the VCAAA’s Advisory Council has helped guide VCAAA staff in recognizing the needs of Ventura County residents for decades. We are proud to have been in the company of so many wonderful Advisory Council members over the years. This page is dedicated to those we’ve lost, whose memory will live on in the services and programs for which they advocated.
