The purpose of the current study was to examine changes in both reactive and proactive police activities since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic when compared to previous years. Specifically, **data** from Houston, Texas were analyzed across seven reactive categories and selfinitiated activities across three units (patrol, crime investigations, and DRT) from January 1, 2018 to December 31, 2020. The results indicated that COVID-19 had notable impacts on four of the reactive measures and all three self-initiated activities. Three key findings emerged from the observed trends and are highlighted here.
