GRANT/PROGRAM
Act 85 – The PLCB released the first biennial report to the
General Assembly on underage and dangerous drinking in the
Commonwealth in March, 2007. Mandated by Act 85 of 2006,
the report presents current information on levels and trends
of underage consumption, existing state prevention programs,
and science-based proven prevention strategies which can
have an impact on future programming. The latest report was
delivered to the General Assembly in 2011.
Alcohol Awareness Poster Contest – This contest challenges
students in grades K-12 to create a poster about the facts,
consequences, and alternatives to underage drinking and/or
drinking and driving. The winning entries and student artists
are honored in a ceremony at the Capitol in Harrisburg. Some
of their designs are reproduced by the PLCB throughout the
year and are disseminated to schools and the public.
Alcohol Education Website – A section of the PLCB website
is dedicated to Alcohol Education and provides information
and resources to the public. Parents, students, professionals,
and licensees can check out the latest statistics, find county
resources, and research the current alcohol-related laws,
order prevention materials, and link to state and national
organizations working on underage and high-risk alcohol
consumption. Visit www.lcb.state.pa.us (Click Alcohol
