O'Brien J et. al. (2003). Never Give Up. Assets Inc.'s Commitment to Community Life for People Seen as "Difficult to Serve".

This article describes how Assets Inc. in Anchorage, Alaska, has developed its capacity to support people other human services place in the "too hard basket": "The foundation of Assets' approach is a positive long-term relationship between the person and Assets' staff which allows the person to make the most possible use of the opportunities in their community. This relationship focuses on discovering and rediscovering each person's hopes and dreams and assisting each person to pursue those hopes and dreams in the context of a secure home and access to opportunities for employment and community participation."
