Part of ACCION Texas Inc. the nation’s largest micro lender, the ACCION Women’s Business Center designed the mentorship program to provide guidance to female business owners during the first five years of their new businesses.

Greene, an ICF Master Certified Coach, was selected as a mentor and paired with Yadira Medina-Torres of Stepping Stones Pediatric Feeding & Speech Therapy Clinic. The pair will meet at least three hours a month for a period of six months. During this time, Medina-Torres will have the opportunity to assist the clinic in achieving continued business success through one-on-one coaching with Greene and attendance of monthly sessions led by various business experts.
“Yadira’s clinic and its mission touch my heart,” commented Greene. “Parents of children with speech disorders and feeding issues often struggle to understand their options to help their children. Yadira and her team truly improve their lives, and I’m proud to mentor her and help her continue her business success.”
