The Obama administration has given nearly $11 million to 12 health centers statewide.

The money helps the state offer preventive health services to more low-income patients.

The HHS secretary says the funding can help care for over 38,000 new patients.

This investment builds on the $6 million that health centers in Florida received in September.

The funding stems from the Affordable Care Act.
