Information Technology

The Information Technology Department of the Diocese of Raleigh exists to provide secure, reliable, and innovative technology solutions that enable the diocese to fulfill its mission of faith, service, and ministry. We are committed to ensuring that the Diocese of Raleigh has the tools, systems, and support necessary to work efficiently, communicate effectively, and steward information responsibly.

Our mission is to safeguard the integrity, confidentiality, and availability of diocesan data while maintaining modern, scalable, and compliant technology environments. Through proactive planning, data governance, and responsive support, we ensure the seamless operation and continuous improvement of all IT systems that serve the Catholic Center and officially supported communities.

We identify and implement efficient processes to organize, store, and analyze data—both structured and unstructured—while maintaining the highest standards of cybersecurity, privacy, and reliability. Guided by stewardship and service, the IT Department advances the digital foundation that allows the Diocese of Raleigh to connect, collaborate, and grow in faith across eastern North Carolina.
