---

Deborah Ullman is a highly engaged community volunteer.  Her career includes extensive experience in both the corporate and nonprofit sectors.  Her corporate career included senior management roles in financial services.  In her encore career, she served as CEO of the YWCA Hartford Region for 13 years.  Since retirement, Deborah continues to serve on several boards including human services and arts and culture.

As a Board member, how can you contribute to the mission of CCNW which is to foster collaborations to ensure a highly educated, diverse, and sustainable nursing workforce to support the healthcare needs of CT residents? 

​During my tenure at the YWCA, I was deeply involved with workforce development in supporting women with families as they sought careers in healthcare.  These were women of diverse backgrounds who were not traditional students and faced many financial and personal hurdles to their goal of becoming a nurse while supporting their families.
