Boot Camp for New Dads is a unique father-to-father, community-based workshop that inspires and equips men of different economic levels, ages and cultures to become confidently engaged with their infants, support their mates and personally navigate their transformation into dads.

Boot Camp is validated by research and has been named a best practice by many organizations that consider it an exceptional means of supporting dads-to-be and fostering behaviors that greatly benefit children and help prevent a wide range of social ills. Founded in 1990, the non-profit Boot Camp for New Dads has graduated over 200,000 men, making it by far the nation’s largest program for new fathers, and  is now offered in 44 states and on U.S. military bases, and is expanding internationally.

 

Since 2003, The Gathering has been Boot Camp's representative in Palm Beach County. Over 700 men have attended our classes.

Testimonies:

I got more out of the class than I thought I would.  Andy O'Brian

I believe this class shouldn't be optional but necessity. I am really excited about this new chapter in my life and I want to thank you and your team for making this such a positive experience. Michael Stein

When my husband returned from Boot Camp he felt empowered to care for men as a pregnant women, as his wife and soon to be new mom. He realized he has a specaial role to play on taking care of me, providing gor our family and being the father figure for our son that no one else could be. Shannon Woolfe
