The "Southwest Advocacy Group," also known as "SWAG," plans to open a new medical clinic for residents west of I-75.

SWAG officials say that part of Alachua County has the highest percentage of Medicaid births and underweight babies.

The $300,000 facility is being funded by grants and money from the County Commission.

SWAG Chairperson, Dorothy Benson expects the clinic to be open by next Summer.
