"I am proud to wholeheartedly endorse Keycha Gallon for her unwavering leadership, courage, and commitment to our communities in Contra Costa and Solano County.

Keycha has consistently shown up for our most vulnerable youth, creating real opportunities for disadvantaged young people and ensuring they have access to resources, mentorship, and pathways to success. Her work is not performative; it is transformational. She doesn’t just talk about change, she builds it.

She has also taken a bold and fearless stand against gun violence, advocating for safer communities through her work with organizations such as Moms Demand Action, and by founding the Richmond-Vallejo chapter, bringing grassroots advocacy directly into the neighborhoods that need it most. Through her leadership, community organizing, and legislative advocacy, Keycha has played a meaningful role in championing and helping pass vital legislation that protects families and saves lives.

Keycha Gallon is a true servant-leader, grounded in integrity, driven by compassion, and guided by action. Our region is stronger because of her work, and our future is brighter because of her vision.

I proudly and confidently endorse Keycha Gallon.

Celina Perez"

Richmond communities deserve a leader who is committed to real solutions, meaningful engagement, and preventing the violence that continues to harm our youth and families. Keycha’s mission reflects exactly that — building safer schools, strengthening our neighborhoods, and creating a future where every resident feels seen, heard, and valued.
