with City of Thousand Oaks Council Chambers Seat Dedication
THOUSAND OAKS, Calif. - Senior Concerns president and CEO Andrea Gallagher was recognized with a City of Thousand Oaks City Council Chambers Seat Dedication during the Dec. 9, 2025, City Council meeting. Outgoing Mayor David Newman presented the prestigious honor.
Gallagher was honored with Seat N9 at the Thousand Oaks Civic Arts Plaza's Scherr Forum Theatre, which also serves as the Andrew P. Fox City Council Chamber.

"This recognition reflects not just my work but the contributions of volunteers, caregivers, donors and staff who support our mission," Gallagher said. "Older adults built this valley. They deserve to age with dignity, connection and community support."
Gallagher said the dedication underscores the City's partnership and support for its older residents.
"Senior Concerns has been caring for older adults for 50 years - and we are working to ensure this care continues for the next 50," Gallagher said. "I appreciate the City's partnership and am humbled by this recognition."
