Keynote Speaker

“Recovery is Everybody’s Responsibility”

Dr. Fisher obtained an M.D. from George Washington University Medical School in 1976 and completed his Residency in Psychiatry at a Harvard teaching program at Cambridge Hospital. He earned a Ph.D. in biochemistry from the University of Wisconsin in 1968 and an A.B. in Biology from Princeton University in 1965. He has worked as a board-certified psychiatrist for 25 years in a variety of settings and was Medical Director for a community mental health center for 12 years. He also is co-founder of the National Empowerment Center in Lawrence, Massachusetts, a consumer-run Research, Training, and Information Center. His involvement in advocacy and peer support have played a vital role in his recovery. Dan is among the few psychiatrists in the country who openly discusses his recovery from mental illness.

Dr. Fisher has written chapters in many books, as well as a number of articles in professional journals such as Hospital and Community Psychiatry and the Psychosocial Rehabilitation Journal. He has produced a video and booklet about important aspects of recovery, “Recovery is for Everyone” as well as a video on “Consumers Working as Providers.”
