Women for Virginia Leigh

Virginia Leigh is running for Sheriff of Essex County, Massachusetts, and would be the first Woman Sheriff in Essex, the second Woman to serve as Sheriff. Only 3% of Sheriffs nationwide are women.

Virginia Leigh, is a bilingual clinical social worker with 15 years of experience working in community health centers, detention centers, and schools. Virginia will bring a clinical approach as Sheriff of Essex County. Virginia’s expertise in mental health and substance use programs and her deep connections in the communities most impacted by crime will bring an innovative and human-centered approach to reducing recidivism in Essex County.

Her expertise comes from years of hard work combined with lived and professional experience working with families, at-risk youth and adults, victims of crime and formerly incarcerated individuals.
