+## Finding Your First Issue
+
+### Duration
+
+20 minutes

+Set participants on as much of a paved path to contributor success as possible.
+At this point in the workshop, participants should know what kind of issue they want to tackle.

+
+### Details To Cover
+
+- help-wanted and good-first-issue labels
+- Up and coming sandbox projects
+- Working with your SIG
+- Refer participants to specific SIGs
+- How to "claim" an issue (since non-members cannot self-assign)
+- Path to [membership](/community-membership.md)
+
+### Ideas
+
+- Give folks time to discuss and help each other
+- Gather information from SIGs in advance (via Slack, Twitter...) on who needs help, and at what level
+- Prepare a list of issues and assign folks right there
+- Connect participants to mentoring tracks if available (e.g. Release Team Shadow)
