  • "While SHI has been a vendor, working with the State of Connecticut since 1991, we engaged Sullivan & LeShane in 2018. We were looking to get better aligned with the State, and to navigate some roadblocks we had been encountering. It has been a great relationship, and we have had many "wins" that have helped advance SHI strategically within the State. The information and experience that Mike and his team lend to us is invaluable." - Barbara West, Regional Director, SHI
