Despite the challenges Hogan has had to face, he has found a strong community at Walter L. Cohen High School and at Covenant House, which he credits for helping him succeed. Hogan delivered a valedictorian address at the Walter L. Cohen High School graduation ceremony on May 24, a speech he described as a "thank-you note" to the community he said has given him so much.
"As time went on, I started to build up relationships, had to meet some wonderful people, got to know a lot of people, as well as forming relationships and trust with them," he said. "Being in a homeless shelter is traumatic. Whatever you went through to get you here is traumatic," Cobb said."He was very shy. He had very little words at first, so it's just awesome to see how much he's developed and become so well-spoken over the last seven or eight months that I've been a part of his life and just been able to push and encourage him to go after everything that the world has to offer," Cobb said.
