Given the common problem of incoherence in district reform efforts, this qualitative study sought to understand what conditions enable (and/or constrain) the efforts of Technical Assistance Organizations (TAOs) to align their products and services with each other and with the specific goals of a district. This paper explores the complexity of TAOs working in partnership with each other and with districts. It describes the types of practices and structures that are useful in connecting technical assistance services with the specific strengths, interests, and needs of the people and the sites where TAOs work as well as the nature of the relationships that must develop between and among TAOs and district personnel. In addition, the analysis explores the roles and responsibilities that a district can assume to create the conditions for more effective use of the products and services that TAOs provide.
