GLSEN (Gay, Lesbian & Straight Education Network) is a national educational organization working to ensure schools are safe and respectful for all students regardless of sexual orientation or gender identity/expression. GLSEN and the Ad Council launched the "Think Before You Speak" campaign to educate straight teens about the prevalence and consequences of anti-LGBT bias and behavior in America's schools. To date, the campaign has included TV, radio, print and online ads featuring Hilary Duff, Wanda Sykes and NBA Phoenix Suns' players Grant Hill and Jared Dudley. GLSEN and the Ad Council are inviting artists to submit a public service announcement that reflects and encourages the theme of "Think Before You Speak." Submissions will be judged by Brett Ratner, Tom Ford and Evan Bernard. The winner of the PSA competition will receive an award presented by Brett Ratner at GLSEN's Respect Awards in Los Angeles. www.talenthouse.com
