The National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Fund (NLEOMF), whose mission is to honor the fallen, tell the story of American law enforcement and make it safer for those who serve, on July 24 announced that John Dilibert was the winner of its annual Ambassador Impact Award.
The Ambassador Impact Award highlights the success and contributions of NLEOMF’s volunteer ambassadors. Designed to recognize the impact that an active member has had on the growth of the program through outreach and fundraising, this high-profile award is given to those who work to ensure the fulfilment of mission accomplishments related to the NLEOMF Memorial, Museum, and Officer Safety and Wellness programs.
“John Dilibert’s tireless dedication, extensive experience and innovative ideas have made a significant impact on the Ambassador Program and the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Fund. His efforts in enhancing training, outreach and event coordination make him a deserving nominee for the Ambassador Impact Award,” NLEOMF CEO Bill Alexander said. “John’s unwavering commitment to supporting law enforcement officers and advancing the program’s mission exemplifies the qualities of an outstanding ambassador.”
Dilibert retired from law enforcement in Burbank, California, then moved to Idaho and began his second law enforcement career with the Ada County Sheriff’s Office in Boise. He was promoted to the rank of lieutenant before retiring, again, at the start of 2022. Actively involved in volunteerism on behalf of law enforcement for years, Dilibert has been a rider in NLEOMF’s partner organization, the Police Unity Tour (PUT), raising thousands of dollars for the Memorial through its program.
Dilibert’s passion for helping those in law enforcement continued with his admission into the NLEOMF Ambassador Program. Dilibert immediately became one of the most involved ambassadors, volunteering to be part of the Presentations Subcommittee, helping develop training for ambassadors to be used among the greater law enforcement community. He has presented before the Idaho Chiefs of Police, the National Tactical Officers Association and on Oceanic Cruises. Dilibert attended the 2023 NHTSA Successful Traffic Safety Program Review Second Quarter Data seminar, which is indicative of his dedication to the program and developing quality training roll calls for officers.
The Ambassador Impact award will be formally presented to Dilibert during the organization’s Annual Awards Ceremony and Reception at the National Law Enforcement Museum on the evening of Friday, September 27. The award will be presented alongside the winners of the Destination Zero Officer Safety and Wellness Awards, as well as the 2024 Officers of the Month.
