ABOUT COGSWELL HALL

For over 140 years, Cogswell Hall has been a pillar of the Detroit Shoreway neighborhood. Offering trauma-informed supportive services and permanent housing as private, fully furnished apartments for 41 adult residents, Cogswell Hall is a place residents come to pursue and achieve their goals. Much more than housing, residents make Cogswell Hall a community of amazing and thriving individuals. 

Community is the core of Cogswell Hall as residents interact daily in common spaces such as activity rooms, floor lounges, a library, and CogsMart (the small, in-house store) and in sharing three daily meals in our family-style dining room. Residents partner with staff to build their Cogswell community by planning activities such as discussion groups, game and movie nights, and exercise and learning opportunities.

Cogswell Hall helps support full self-sufficiency by working with residents to target and achieve their personal, financial, educational, health goals, and more.
