We serve patients throughout Michigan, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, and throughout the United States. Since 1991, Special Tree has achieved accreditation from the Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities (CARF).

In 2020, Special Tree was honored with the Michigan Performance Excellence Award, the state’s highest recognition for organizations that demonstrate outstanding performance, leadership, and operational excellence, and was a Detroit Free Press Top Workplace for ten years running. Our primary focus is to assist patients in their recovery, helping them achieve the best possible outcomes with maximum independence.

Are you a cloud or a rainbow?

A little kindness, encouragement, or support can make a big difference in someone’s day. As a team, we have the opportunity to lift each other up, brighten someone’s day, and remind one another that we’re never in it alone.

Let’s start this week by being the rainbow for someone else. 💙

Happy Monday! Let’s make it a great week—together! 🤝✨
