Like Us on Facebook!

The Pennsylvania Liquor Control Board’s Bureau of Alcohol Education is now on Facebook. Our goal is to connect with our partners as we work together to combat underage and dangerous drinking and we can't think of a better way to do it.

Through this virtual network, we will be able to share examples of best practices in the areas of alcohol education and programs that promote the responsible use of alcohol. If you have an example of something that’s really working in your area or you see an issue on the horizon, we want to hear from you.
