This is similar to adding a contact as described in Help a friend or family member as their account recovery contact - Apple Support


1. Go to Settings

2. Select Password & Security

3. Select Account Recovery or Recovery Assistance

4. Select a person


As for adding one, make sure you meet the requirements in Set up an account recovery contact - Apple Support

If you still can't add a person, contact Apple as suggested at the end of the article.
