Frequently Asked Questions.
What is a Process Group?
A process group is a "social microcosm" where people interact naturally with each other while learning to see themselves through others' eyes and understand their relationship patterns as they unfold in real-time. It's a safe space where group members give each other honest feedback about how they come across interpersonally, allowing them to practice new ways of relating with the guidance of a facilitator.
Is Corda only for practicing Catholics?
Corda is open to anyone interested in authentic, Catholic-focused community support. Our group leaders and values are rooted in Catholic tradition, 100% faithful to the Magisterium of the Catholic Church.
What makes Corda expert-led?
Our facilitators are experienced Catholic professionals—many with backgrounds in counseling, ministry, or peer support training.
