Boot Camp for New Dads
Boot Camp Now in FOUR hospitals!
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 42 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.
The mission of Boot Camp is:
To assure every child the opportunity for a caring and capable father beginning at birth.
These classes are for First Time Dads.
