About PLASE and PCPTP
About the Pennsylvania Learning Academy for Sexuality Education
The Pennsylvania Learning Academy for Sexuality Education (PLASE) has been established to combat issues like unintended teen pregnancy and the spread of sexually transmissible diseases by
helping young people to develop into sexually literate and healthy adults.
The academy is based in the Department of Biobehavioral Health in Penn State’s College of Health and Human Development and is a collaborative effort with the Pennsylvania Coalition to
Prevent Teen Pregnancy and the Pennsylvania Department of Education.
About the Pennsylvania Coalition to Prevent Teen Pregnancy
The Pennsylvania Coalition to Prevent Teen Pregnancy addresses teen pregnancy prevention issues at the state and local levels through the work of its staff, board of directors, and community-based coalitions. Founded in 1993, the mission of the PCPTP is to provide statewide leadership on the issue of adolescent pregnancy prevention through advocacy, education, and support for community efforts.
