About Quark

Our name comes from “Quark” as used in physics named by physicist Murray Gell-Mann to describe sub-atomic particles – pronounced as “KWORK”. We feel that “Quark” paired with “Collaboration” & ” Institute” synthesizes our mission and vision within a phrase. The smallest particles when combined with others can create massive structures with properties that may not resemble constituent parts, enhancing the wonder and beauty of all.

Our Mission

Our vision embodies the beauty that comes in understanding our unique selves and the fabric in which we are intertwined, our distinctive neurology: brain wiring, and socio-economic-cultural factors that have shaped our identities into the people that we were, we are and we will be.

Knowing that humans evolve not just emotionally, physically but spiritually and culturally. Dignity results when an individual can evolve with equity and this is the new minimum.
