Suffolk County Sheriff Steven W. Tompkins was elected to the Vice Presidency of Region I for the National Organization of Black Law Enforcement Executives (NOBLE).
Already serving as the President of the Massachusetts Chapter of NOBLE, Tompkins will now represent the Region I states of Connecticut, Massachusetts, New Jersey and New York, with planned expansion into New Hampshire and Rhode Island.
“I am so honored to have been elected to represent NOBLE’s Region I as Vice President and I am looking forward to my work in this additional capacity,” Tompkins said.
Tompkins has served as the President of the Massachusetts chapter since its revival in 2019. He also currently serves as the President of the Massachusetts Sheriff’s Association and as the Chairman of the Board of Trustees for Roxbury Community College.
NOBLE is comprised of 59 chapters in six regions throughout the United States, with a membership that also includes Canada, the Caribbean, the United Kingdom, and several countries in Africa. It is NOBLE’s mission to ensure equity in the administration of justice, in the provision of public service to all communities, and to serve as the conscience of law enforcement by being committed to justice by action.
