Compliments and Complaints
Your Voice Matters
At the University of Houston-Downtown Police Department, our relationship with the community is built on trust, communication, and shared responsibility. We understand that questions or concerns may arise following interactions with police department personnel. Differences in perception, misunderstandings, or evolving information can sometimes lead to varying accounts of the same incident.
We are committed to listening, engaging in open dialogue, and reviewing concerns in a thorough, respectful, and professional manner. Our effectiveness depends on working together with the students, faculty, staff, and visitors we serve.

Positive interactions matter, too. If police department personnel have made a difference through professionalism, compassion, or exceptional service, we welcome you to share your experience.
Letters or notes to the Chief of Police will be shared with the individual and placed in their personnel file. Recognizing outstanding service strengthens our culture of professionalism and reinforces the partnership we value with our community.
Transparency & Accountability
