Even if you aren’t a member, you can see who the Admin is of a given Public or Private Group. [1] X Research source This wikiHow article will teach you how to find the Admin of a Facebook Group.

View the members. Once you are on the Group’s page, click on the “People” tab in the menu bar directly underneath the header. [3] X Research source
- There is not a tab labeled "People" in the mobile app. Instead, you should tap on the title of the Group located within the header. Then tap the blue text, "See All", to the right of the bolded text labeled "People".
-
Locate the admin(s). On the website and app, will see a list of members underneath the bolded "Members" text. It is divided into two sections. The upper section is labeled "Admins and Moderators” and it displays the name(s) of the Admin(s). You click or tap on a name to get to their profile! [4] X Research source

-
Identify the admin, if necessary. There is a difference between Admins and Moderators. An Admin has complete control over the Group while a Moderator has limited control. Therefore, if there are multiple users underneath “Admins and Moderators,” you must click or tap on a name to figure out which role corresponds to which user. [6] X Research source

Go to their profile. If you haven’t already, tap or click on the name of the Admin to navigate to their profile.
-
Click or tap on the Messenger icon. This button labeled, “Message,” has a speech bubble icon next to it. It is located directly underneath the User’s name. On your computer, you will now see a chat box appear in the lower right corner.
- If you are using a mobile device you will be automatically redirected to the Messenger app.
-
Send a message. This should be a relatively short message (a few sentences at most) that describes your overall comment, question, or issue you want to bring up with the Admin. Type this out in the chat box and click or tap on the blue airplane/arrow icon in the bottom right corner of the chat box. [7] X Research source
-
Wait for a reply. It may take a little while for the Admin to message you back. If it’s been more than a few days without a reply, you can consider sending a follow-up message or friendly reminder.
- If you are not friends with the Admin, keep in mind that they have to first accept your message request before replying.
-
Send a message back. Once the Admin gets back to you, send them a reply if wanted. This is also a good time to add any extra information you did not include in your original message.
