It took a bit of digging but I found this on the Illinois state site about "lessons learned" directors - and what a surprise, it's a Homeland Security thing ...

"John Rabin, a Senior Associate at DFI Government Services, is the Program Director of Lessons Learned Information Sharing (LLIS.gov), the national lessons learned and best practices network for America’s homeland security community. This initiative, sponsored by the Department of Homeland Security’s Office for Domestic Preparedness (ODP) and the National Memorial Institute for the Prevention of Terrorism (MIPT) in Oklahoma City, is designed to facilitate efforts to improve planning, preparedness, and response capabilities across all homeland security disciplines.
