On the issues
Dad, Husband, and Councilman dedicated to keeping Brook Park a great place for Families!
Thomas W. Dufour is committed to building a community where every family can thrive.
Families are the heart of Brook Park. As a councilman, I’ve worked to ensure parents can raise their kids with confidence, seniors are supported with dignity, and every household has access to safe streets, vibrant parks, and strong community spaces.

I believe supporting families isn’t about any single policy—it’s about creating a foundation of stability and opportunity. When families are strong, our community is strong. That’s what guides me every day as your representative on Brook Park City Council.
Personal Note
As a father and a husband raising my own son here in Brook Park, I carry the same hopes and worries as every other parent in our city. Every vote I cast is guided by the belief that our community should be a place where families feel safe, supported, and proud to call home.
