Where Westport Meets the World: Jennifer Tooker, First Selectwoman of Westport

Westport’s own Dan Woog brings his popular blog “06880: Where Westport Meets the World” to life, via the Verso Studios at The Westport Library - recorded LIVE in the Trefz Forum!
This week he welcomes back Jen Tooker, First Selectwoman of Westport, who previously spoke with Westport Chief of Police Foti Koskinas on “Where Westport Meets the World” in June 2023. In this week’s conversation, she reflects upon her time as First Selectwoman and the changes Westport has seen during her tenure.
First Selectwoman of Westport, Jennifer Tooker, has long been a public servant in Westport’s community. Prior to becoming First Selectwoman, Jennifer was Second Selectwoman, a position she has held since her election in 2017. She has served as a member of the Westport Board of Finance, the Westport Board of Education and the Westport Conservation Commission.
As Second Selectwoman, Jennifer worked on a number of important initiatives. Focused on the social and emotional health and well-being of our community, Jennifer launched Westport Together. The mission of Westport Together is to promote the positive development of our children. This alliance between the Town and Westport Public Schools revitalized and rebranded its longstanding partnership to engage more of our community partners, strengthen programming and enhance coordination among other non-profit community agencies.
