About Lynn Wiggins
Lynn Roosevelt Wiggins was born in Ann Arbor, MI and raised in Detroit, MI. As a 4th generation Detroiter he’s spent the past 20 years focused on local & national politics, workforce development, public policy and sales; working in marketing, government and with non-profit agencies (particularly dealing with youth, formerly incarcerated and adult job seekers) in Florida, the San Francisco Bay Area, Los Angeles, Nevada and Michigan.
His organizing career began in February 2011 during an intensive four-month fellowship program The Organizing and Leadership Academy (TOLA) where he received hands-on instruction regarding organizing and leadership from some of the sharpest minds in local, state and national politics.
After completing his Organizing Fellowship with TOLA, Lynn briefly returned to his hometown of Detroit, Michigan, before traveling the country and working on over 50+ projects over the past 10 years with a 75% success rate.
Lynn returned home to Detroit 5 years ago and began working on multiple projects to help aid the city’s on-going renaissance.
