>Catch GLSEN on Ugly Betty, Tonight on ABC! (April 7)

>Last week we had the privilege of being the first to announce the coming out of Ugly Betty character Justin in tonight’s episode. Find out just what all the excitement is about and watch GLSEN play a role in a defining moment for the character.

ABC will also air a PSA from GLSEN and the Ad Council’s Think Before You Speak campaign. Thanks, Ugly Betty and ABC!

“Your support for GLSEN is making real storylines, just like Justin’s, possible in schools all over our country. We applaud the work you do, and hope you’ll be watching with all of us at Ugly Betty as we help our much-loved Justin take the next step in his personal coming out journey.” -Creative Team of Ugly Betty

Ugly Betty airs 10 p.m. EST on ABC.
