# User Management

User management in HelpYouSponsor provides comprehensive control over who can access your organization's platform and what they can do. This robust system allows you to maintain security while providing appropriate access levels to team members, volunteers, and administrators.

To navigate to User Management, open the quick actions menu (Cmd+K) and search for **Admin & Permissions**, or go directly to `/admin-options` in your browser.
