    ObjectiveRecovery has emerged over the past decade as a dominant theme in public mental health care.MethodsThe 2006 Pennsylvania Consensus Conference brought together 24 community psychiatrists to explore the barriers they experienced in promoting recovery and their recommendations for change.ResultsTwelve barriers were identified and classified into one of three categories: psychiatry knowledge, roles, and training; the need to transform public mental health systems and services; and environmental barriers to opportunity. Participants made 22 recommendations to address these barriers through changes in policies, programs, and psychiatric knowledge and practice.ConclusionsThe recommendations identify areas for change that can be accomplished through individual psychiatrist action and organized group efforts.
