St. Joseph Mercy Ann Arbor (Trinity Health) adds community hospital depth. The U-M Autism & Communication Disorders Center (UMACC) is internationally recognized.

Beast Putty in Ann Arbor
Beast Putty meets Ann Arbor's exacting standards. Michigan's extreme climate — polar vortex winters reaching -15°F and humid 90°F summers — creates a twice-annual crisis for standard therapy putty. It freezes and hardens in winter, then gets sticky and degrades in summer. Beast Putty's silicone formula is completely climate-proof year-round. For Michigan Medicine's top-ranked rehabilitation programs, it provides research-grade quality matching the institution's standards. For C.S. Mott Children's Hospital's nationally recognized pediatric programs, it's a premium sensory tool. For the #1-ranked OT program, it demonstrates what best-in-class therapy tools look like to future clinicians. For UMACC's autism research, it offers a consistent, reproducible sensory intervention tool. For Ann Arbor's public schools, it survives Michigan weather and daily classroom use. Climate-proof, research-grade, and #1-program worthy — Beast Putty belongs in Ann Arbor.
