You've sent the person an invite ? If you have, and if the person's device/computer meets the minimum requirement, they should receive an invite and be able to accept and join : Set up Family Sharing - Apple Support

You can accept or decline an invitation to join a family from your device:

  • On your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, go to Settings > iCloud > Invitations.
  • On your Mac, choose Apple menu > System Preferences > iCloud > Manage Family.
  • If the invitation is sent to your email address, you can respond right from your email.

To accept an invitation, follow the onscreen instructions. Here's what you'll be asked to do when you join:

  • Confirm your Apple ID and password.
  • Choose if you want to share your content and which Apple ID you want to share from.
  • Choose if you want to share your location. If you agree, your location can be displayed on family members’ devices in Find My Friends and Messages, and the location of your shared devices will also appear on family members’ devices in Find My iPhone.
