CEO & Founder Milt Dallas, Oneida Nation of Wisconsin Member, Leads the Charge in Helping Native American Reservations from the Devastating Effects of Opioids 

East Troy, Wis., February 27, 2025 – Rx Destroyer, the leading drug disposal experts, have partnered with Native News Online and Tribal Business News, the premier and trusted news source for Indian Country. The partnership aims to address the growing need for safe and environmentally responsible drug disposal to sovereign nations. 

The opioid epidemic continues to impact Natives more than any demographic. In fact, according to the CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention), Natives are two times as likely to die from a drug overdose than any other race; furthermore, due to the opioid epidemic, some tribes’ death rates are considered at extinction levels. This partnership will highlight resources and partnerships to give communities and families access to drug disposal products and culturally relevant education to create a sustainable change that will protect generations to come.

 “The behavior of stockpiling opioids and prescription medications in our medicine cabinets for ’a rainy day’ must change before it ends us,” said Milton Dallas, CEO and Co-Founder of Rx Destroyer. “The effects of drug abuse and misuse are real. Just look around at your neighborhoods, family, and friends. Our inherent responsibility to the Seven Generations Principle has never been more clear and vital to our health and survival. I know that this partnership is the first step to creating awareness to initiate change among our people.”

Through this initiative, Rx Destroyer, Native News Online, and Tribal Business News will deliver educational content, Tribal success stories, and culturally relevant community-based resources to support the efforts of opioid overdose reduction and prevention practices. With a readership that includes tribal leaders, healthcare providers, behavioral health professionals, environmentalists, and community advocates, Native News and Tribal Business News serves as the trusted provided of public health and safety information.

“We are excited to partner with Rx Destroyer in the fight against opioid and prescription abuse in Indian Country. We are losing way too many members of our tribal communities. Rx Destroyer provides a means to substantially reduce these losses,” Levi Rickert, publisher and editor of Native News Online and Tribal News Online said. “We are completely aligned with the Seven Generations principle embraced by Rx Destroyer.”

Can we take a minute to talk about tribal sovereignty?

Our mission draws from the warrior spirit that has sustained Indigenous peoples for generations — the same spirit that drives us to stand guard over tribal rights through relentless investigation and fearless reporting. 

Sovereignty isn't just a concept – it's the foundation of Native nations' right to govern, protect our lands, and preserve our cultures. Every story we publish strengthens tribal sovereignty.

Unlike mainstream media, we center Indigenous voices and report directly from Native communities. When we cover land rights, water protection, or tribal governance, we're not just sharing news – we're documenting our living history and defending our future.

Our journalism is powered by readers, not shareholders. If you believe in the importance of Native-led media in protecting tribal sovereignty, consider supporting our work today.
