As the president and CEO of Easterseals, a non-profit service for people with disabilities and the aging community, Pam Green oozes energy and goodwill through everything she touches. Having been adopted and experiencing the divorce of her parents at a young age, Pam saw firsthand the common effects of divorce resulting in poverty for women. This translated directly to her future career path. She attended Transylvania University in Kentucky and was really able to start anew as her own person majoring in English and women’s studies. Taking her first career opportunity at Kelly Staffing services, she made a bountiful career out of it and lived in the Midwest, Austin, Detroit, and Raleigh.
After moving to Cincinnati and experiencing the riots over Timothy Thomas’s shooting and then the devastating effects of 9/11, Pam felt the call to a different line of work. This resulted in her career with non-profits and eventually her own leader role at easterseals.
