The user might have disabled being added to groups, or the group is full.
Question

Why can't I find the "add member" option?

That likely means the group is already full. Remove some members of the group and try it again.
Question

When I enter in the recipients, the "next" button does not highlight and is not functional. Why?

That's most likely because you added too many users. There is a limit to how many users in a group chat. Remove the least important members, then try again.
