City of Ventura seeks applicants for Ventura Council for Seniors

Ventura, Calif.- The City of Ventura is now accepting applications for the Ventura Council for Seniors (VCS). This volunteer advisory group advocates for and improves the lives of the city's older adult residents.

Applicants must:

  • Be a City of Ventura resident, age 60 or older
  • Be available to attend monthly meetings, held on the third Tuesday of each month from 4:00 - 5:00 p.m. at the Ventura Avenue Adult Center (550 N. Ventura Avenue)

The City Council will also appoint two VCS members to represent Ventura on the Ventura County Area Agency on Aging (VCAAA) Advisory Council. These representatives attend countywide meetings every other month on the second Wednesday (starting in January), from 9:00 - 11:00 a.m., at the VCAAA's RiverPark office in Oxnard.

Members play an essential role by:

  • Advocating for the needs of Ventura's older adults
  • Sharing countywide resources and senior-focused initiatives from VCAAA
  • Welcoming residents and providing updates at monthly VCS meetings

"The Ventura Council for Seniors is a vital voice for our City's older adults," said Mayor Dr. Jeannette Sanchez-Palacios. "This is a meaningful opportunity to serve and ensure Ventura's senior residents remain informed, connected, and represented."

Applications are accepted year-round at https://www.cityofventura.ca.gov/VCS. For more information, contact Recreation Supervisor Janine Cobian at [email protected] or call the Ventura Avenue Adult Center at 805-648-3035.
