Message from the Chief.
The City of D’Iberville is a wonderful place to work with a family-oriented atmosphere with city leadership that cares for all of its employees and support for its first responders is second to none. The greatest strength of the D’Iberville Police Department is the quality of our staff which is committed to bringing a professional service to the community I love!

We are always seeking qualified members to join our family of law-enforcement professionals. Seeking those new to law enforcement (Recruits) and those with experience (Laterals).
