On September 18, 2011, Canevari will be honored at the foundation’s 6th Annual “Polo in the Palisades” event at Will Rogers State Park. In recognition of his work in the field of recovery, Canevari will receive an Award for Distinguished Service.

He has conducted interventions throughout the United States and South America with a 97% success rate of getting patients into treatment for addictions, eating disorders and other mental health issues.
