Depends on which phone number it is. If it's 850-300-4323, it's the legit number for the Florida Department of Children and Families. If it's 800-962-2873, that's the Florida Abuse Hotline, and legit (if the letter is about abuse).
You can check out the other phone numbers and contact information here:

Unfortunately, Florida is somewhat backward and uses a .com address for their website instead of a .gov like the rest of the civilized world. So it seems like it might be a fake website. But this is their actual website, I've referred to it before.
