Margaret Long
Project Director
Margaret Long ("Meg") has a background in non-profit management and evaluation research. Prior to OMG, she worked with a national tutoring program and conducted research on a broad range of international and domestic issues including educational reform, health care provision, and non-profit management and efficiency.
Meg is currently managing two arts and education evaluations: the Ford Foundation's Arts Education Initiative; and the Chicago Community Trust's Arts Education Initiative. For both, she is developing cross-site and site specific theories of changes and specific instruments and tools to measure outcomes that range from student level impacts to partnerships development capacities to school system change. Meg is also managing the national multi-year evaluation of the Lumina Foundation for Education's College Access and Success Program.
Before joining OMG, Meg was the Coordinator for Volunteer Recruitment, Training and Marketing for Experience Corps Philadelphia-a national intergenerational tutoring program. In that role, she worked with twenty-two inner-city elementary schools and two after-school programs to address the literacy needs of children reading below grade level. She also worked with community members and stakeholders to improve educational services to children and their families in Philadelphia. Her experience at the United Nations, the World Bank Institute, and the International Longevity Center ranged from conducting analyses of poverty alleviation policy measures in Kenya to that of socio-economic indicators of older New Yorkers to impact service delivery in intergenerational programs in the United States.
Meg holds a B.A. from Rutgers College and a Masters of Public Administration in Public Policy and Non-Profit Management from New York University.
