Maggie May, who is 27 years old, was diagnosed at the age of five with FAS while in foster care. She was born in and has lived her entire life in Ireland. She is a well-known speaker on FASD, moderates several on-line groups including the largest global online support group for teens and adults with FASD and provides online mentoring to teens with FASD in several countries. Maggie has been a member of the Adult Leadership Collaborative of the FASD Changemakers for 3 years. She works for FASD UK.
