About Debra Livingston

ReEmployAbility CEO & Founder

Debra Livingston has served in various executive capacities throughout her career, with a concentrated focus on return-to-work programs. With over 25 years of workers’ compensation experience, she started her career as a claims adjuster and moved into various facets of the industry including, account executive for Aetna Property Casualty, broker consultant for Wells

Fargo Insurance Services, and director of claims for a large Florida professional employer organization.

When Debra started ReEmployAbility almost 20 years ago, she didn’t realize she would have the opportunity to impact so many lives. Today, the Transition2Work program has helped thousands of injured workers, individuals who are typically concerned and uncertain about their lives after having experienced an injury.

Through ReEmployAbility, she works with clients to advocate for their employees and to encourage a more empathetic and supportive approach during the return-to-work process. By joining business and community, ReEmployAbility has provided volunteers to thousands of nonprofit organizations across the US who have contributed over 14.7 million hours of community service!

Debra is a member of Chief Leadership Group, a private network for women in executive leadership, and serves on several boards. She is a member of the WorkCompCentral Education Advisory Board, on the advisory board for South State Bank, and on the executive board of The Spring of Tampa Bay, a not-for-profit whose mission is to prevent domestic violence, protect victims, and promote change in lives, families, and communities. Debra is also active in her local church, Nativity Catholic Church, and supports HOPE (Hillsborough Organization for Progress and Equality), and The Heroes Journey Foundation.
